Our Story
Unveil the legacy where coffee first whispered to the world through ancient legends and mystical discoveries in Yemen. From sacred monasteries to the inception of the revered Original Mocha, our journey rekindles the authentic essence of this historic brew.
Where it all started
The story of coffee is steeped in legend and rich history, tracing back to the rugged, mountainous terrains of Yemen. It was here, amidst the ancient landscapes of the 15th century, that the world first embraced the enchanting allure of coffee. According to lore, it was Sufi monks who discovered the energizing effects of coffee beans, using them to sustain their nocturnal devotions. This mystical beginning in Yemen set the stage for a beverage that would captivate the world, originating from a land renowned for its profound cultural and historical significance in the coffee narrative.
Original Mochas was Created
As the appreciation for coffee spread from the Sufi monasteries to the bustling ports of Yemen, the city of Mokha emerged as the heart of the coffee trade. It was here, against the backdrop of trade routes and ocean voyages, that Original Mocha was born. This wasn’t just any coffee; it was a testament to the unique flavors and quality that could only be found in the beans sourced from Yemen’s fertile grounds. The term “Mocha” itself became synonymous with high-quality coffee, derived from the port that once served as the primary gateway for coffee leaving Yemen to the rest of the world.
Sourcing from the Mountains of Yafa
In our quest to recreate the storied legacy of Original Mocha, our journey took us to the mountainous regions of Yafa, a place within Yemen known for producing some of the most sought-after and specialty coffee beans in the world. The unique microclimate of Yafa, characterized by its high altitude, rich soil, and traditional cultivation methods, contributes to a coffee with unparalleled aroma and flavor. It was in these mountains that we found the essence of what would become our signature coffee, a direct link to the origins of the beverage we all cherish.
