Bereft of the oil resources and wealth common to many Arab nations, Yemen is rich with magnificent and captivating natural wonders which far surpass her neighbors. It is awe inspiring, considering our western dependence on technology, that coffee there is grown and processed in much the same way is has been for 500 years and that for the most part, it remains harmonious to both the
culture and the environment.

Typically, coffee in Yemen is grown on spectacular terraces clinging to dusty mountainsides, below ancient geometric villages. The misty summer rains arrive as the coffee trees are blossoming and their fruit is forming, bringing the hills to life with multitudes of small but lush leafy green trees. As autumn approaches, the air dries and the fruit ripens, is picked, and then set out to dry on nearby rooftops.
