Howari - Yemen

About This Coffee

Howari is a natural-processed single-origin coffee from Howari village in Al-Qafr District, Ibb administrative district, central Yemen. Grown at altitudes between 1600 and 1950 meters above sea level by approximately 1000 farmers, it features the Jaadi varietal. After harvesting, the coffee is dried by hand on rooftops for 6–12 days in the sun. The flavor profile is intense, sweet, and tangy, with notes of blood orange, mate tea, and a hint of mint. Exported by Mocha Mill, one of Yemen's first specialty coffee exporters. Harvested in March 2021.
