Zumbar Coffee & Tea

https://www.zumbarcoffee.com/coffee-products/yemen Yemen Mocca Harazi is produced by small legacy farmers in the high mountains of northwestern Yemen who comprise a grower coalition called the Khulani Coffee Society for Agricultural Development (KCSAD). Khulani is a term of terroir distinction, similar to Kona, that refers to high-quality heirloom coffee varieties produced in the unique climate and soil of Yemen’s northern ranges. Khulani coffee is widely regarded in Yeme...n as one of its best and most historic. All Khulani coffee is processed as a natural: hand-picked, sorted for consistency, and dried in a single layer in full sun on raised beds or rooftops. Maintaining coffee trees in a climate as dry, high, and uniquely challenging as Yemen’s western and northern ranges, requires the kind of proven techniques that only generations of farming can bestow. Coffee farms are iconically terraced on arid, incredibly steep slopes. Bore holes are dug manually into the rock to access individual water reserves for each tree wherever rain is scarce. Coffee trees are spaced generously, about 1000 per hectare (compared to 4000-6000 common in Latin America), both by necessity on the narrow terraces, as well as for better groundwater access and erosion control. We’re excited to offer this year’s excellent coffee cultivated on some of Yemen’s most unique and historic coffee farms.

PERÚ CAJAMARCA EL GUAYACÁN El Guayacán is a community blend from our friends at Caravela Coffee. This lot comes from three small producers, whose farms range from 1 to 3 hectares in size. They are located in the Jaen and San Ignacio municipalities of Cajamarca. The name El Guayacán is a reference to the native trees, which are found along the temperate areas from Mexico through Peru and the Tropic of Capricorn. In Peru, these trees annually bloom bright gold/yellow around... the early part of the year (Feb-Apr) during the dry season. The trees are great for drainage and shade, and you can find them scattered among coffee shrubs throughout the coffee growing areas of Cajamarca, including Jaen and San Ignacio. We’re excited to offer this wonderfully smooth, fruity coffee. This coffee’s profile lends itself nicely to a filtered brewing method, such as an AeroPress or V60 pourover.
