An important and integral part of coffee’s history, Yemen is the origin of the term ‘Coffea Arabica’, which takes its name from 'Qahwa Arabiyah' (Arabic Coffee), and was the first country in the world to grow coffee commercially - all the way back in the 1300's. Today, most of the coffee grown in Yemen consists of ancient heirloom varietals of Arabica coffee that originally came from Ethiopia and are not grown anywhere else in the world, creating coffees that are unique in taste profile to Yemen.
Sea Island has carefully sourced the very best Yemeni coffees produced under the famous 'White Camel' brand by Ahmed Alhamdani. Due to the lack of rain in this region the coffee plantations need to be irrigated, but the dry air does have the benefit of creating a very small and extremely hard coffee bean. Ismaili produces tiny, rounded beans which resemble split peas. Mattari is a term coined for coffee coming from the Bani Matter area, a high-altitude coffee growing region west of Yemen’s capital Saan’a.
This is the most renowned of Yemeni coffees and the taste profile is a very fragrant, acidic and complex cup.
For micro-roasters, wholesalers, and home roasters, all our coffee varieties are available as green (raw) unroasted beans. Green coffee beans almost never expire. For larger wholesale orders, please contact us via our wholesale page.
