Yemen

Sea Island has carefully sourced the very best Yemeni coffees available, produced under the famous ‘White Camel’ label by Ahmed Alhamdani. The availability of this brand is very limited, with each coffee named according to the different areas in which they grow. All White Camel coffee is grown at altitudes of at least 1700 metres above sea level, depending on the region where the coffee is produced, naturally sun-dried on earth drying grounds, and sorted by hand.

Produced in the Bani Ismail district of Sana’a, at an altitude of 2000 to 2500 metres, Ismaili beans are tiny and rounded, resembling split peas. The cup profile of Ismaili coffee is elegant - softer, gentler, and less powerful than the Matari, but still exceptionally complex with many sweet, fruity layers.

We roast all our coffee beans in small artisanal batches each day to preserve freshness and consistency. All ground coffee is ground to order just before shipping, so you can be assured your coffee has arrived as fresh as possible.

The majority of our coffees are medium roasted as a standard, unless otherwise stated on the product page.

Please contact us if you have any questions about our coffees or the way we roast.

All orders are packed and shipped from our roastery in the UK.

We aim to process and ship orders within 1-2 working days, although large orders containing multiple varieties of roasted coffee may take slightly longer. 

UK shipping is free on orders over £100.

For international orders, shipping costs and any duties & taxes are calculated and prepaid for at checkout - Any charges at customs are then dealt with in advance by us to ensure your coffee arrives as quickly as possible. 

US shipping is free on orders over $250.
