Once the fruit, referred to as “cherries” are ripe, they are hand-picked & goes through a special drying period in caverns, and in some cases, on rooftops. The territory in which this ancient coffee variety is cultivated is in a high altitude and drough-prone land. While these processing factors add to the rarity of these low production crops, it also accounts for the unique character off Yemen Coffee’s special flavor profile
