Yemen Single Farmer Hasan Ghalib Saleh nanolot, arrived January 2023 in muslin bags lined with Grainpro. Directly imported.

An incredible opportunity to try a Yemeni Haraaz Red grown on a single small farm meticulously focused on quality in the mountainous region of Sharqi Haraaz in the village of Oberaat. Grown by Hasan Ghalib Saleh nanolot represents most of his small farm's yearly production.

Rajeh's farm is located in the Sarawat Mountain Range in Western Yemen. Coffee is grown between 6,500 and 8,000 feet in a relatively arid environment that depends entirely on rainfall for irrigation. Unlike many coffee groves throughout the world, trees are planted individually and retain their distinct tree or shrub like appearance throughout the steeply terraced hillsides. Rajen Husein also manages a shop, with his younger brothers, in the capital city of Sana’a when not tending to his coffee plants on the farm.

Coffee origins are deeply rooted in Yemen given its geographic proximity to Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee. There are heirloom varietals that are found nowhere else on Earth and this amazing coffee is a perfect example. Although given the Haraaz Red designation this particular coffee is comprised of three unique heirloom varieties, Ja’di, Jufaini, and Dawairi. You have the unique opportunity to taste one of coffee’s oldest and more distinct lineage through with the purchase of this Yemeni coffee.

Cherry was harvested in early 2022 before it was sun dried on African drying beds. As with all Yemeni coffee’s this lot is considered natural which means it was dried in the husk without fermentation and then milled. Rajeh works with our notable exporter and this coffee goes through an arduous and transparent process that rewards the producer with the bulk of money raised from its sale.
