Haraaz Coffee is grown at an altitude of 8,000ft using centuries-old method of step-farming on terraced mountain slopes using natural organic farming, free of pesticides and chemicals. The ripe coffee cherries are hand picked and sun-dried and processed in local cooperative mills to meet the SCAA standard of Specialty Coffee. It is traceable to the Sharqi Haraaz sub region. Yemeni Mocha Harazi Qahwa is Coffee Sheikh’s signature coffee. ‘Qahwa’ is simply Arabic for coffee, but also implies a unique method of brewing it with various spices. True Arabic coffee was developed several centuries ago with the rise of Yemeni and Ethiopian coffees, which have a syrupy mouthfeel and strong chocolaty notes. In fact, the word ‘Mocha’ came from the Port of Mokha in Yemen, the center of coffee trade in the 18th century. Modern-day awareness of Yemeni origin coffee has been restricted to the inner circles of experienced specialty coffee drinkers who are willing to pay a serious buck for this hard-to-obtain coffee. However, Coffee Sheikh has met with real Yemeni farmers who have brought the coffee to neighboring countries on small boats. Through this roundabout system, Coffee Sheikh is able to provide Authentic Yemeni coffee at a modest price for our customers. *Roasted fresh in the United States *100% Original Yemeni Arabica Coffee *100% Award-winning Heirloom Mono-Origin Yemeni Coffee *Excellent for Arabic Qahwa or Turkish-style coffee *Adheres to Yemen’s fair-value system, where coffee is purchased from recognized farmers at a fair and economically sustainable price *Beautiful packaging makes a delightful, culturally-thoughtful gift *10% of all proceeds will go to the Yemen Peace Project.
