You will not find anything like Yemini coffee in the entire world”— Yahya Bin Hizam Al Naboos JUMEIRAH LAKES TOWERS, DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, March 28, 2022...

Coffee has long been a treasure of The Yemen. Home to Mr. Al Naboos, a self- made barista, who captured our hearts with his story the minute that our team met him. At 88 years, his smile and passion while serving his coffee was infectious. It is amazing the amount of love that a pinch of Almonds, a little dash of cinnamon, fresh cascara, and a spoon of ginger and a touch of kindness can spread between so many people. This is exactly what Rose&Cactus lives for, always inspired by the stories and connections that surround us.

Have you ever wondered about the coffee cherry? Is the coffee cherry a similar taste to coffee as we know it?

As you probably already know, coffee is grown on a tree. What you might not know, however, is that this tree produces fragrant white blossoms (similar in scent to jasmine). They turn into green, berry-like cherries. When they are ripe, they become a ruby red, indicating they’re ready to be picked.

The cherries don't have the "coffee flavour" that we are familiar with, as this only appears at the roasting stage. A ripe coffee cherry has a pleasant aroma and flavour.

They are closest in description to a grape. The cherry fruit's outer skin is tough and bitter, but on the inside you can find juicy, sweet flesh and underneath it a slimy layer which protects the best thing underneath it, the bean.
Coffee is grown in various regions, climates, and cultivation methods that give vastly different flavour profiles.

Harvest is here, and some of our beans have been picked and are beginning the drying process.

These beautiful photo show the coffee cherries drying on raised beds. The beans will dry for 15 to 20 days. This farm is around 1900 metres above sea level. The current climate allows for the intricate sugars to break down slowly, seeping flavours into the coffee bean and producing what will become beautiful tasting flavour notes. Our beans are all naturally processed ensuring no chemicals are used in the process, and the flavour stays with the coffee bean.
Known as Qishr in Yemen, and Cascara in other origins, it is the name given to the dried outer part of the coffee cherry. In Yemen we use it to brew a traditional spiced tea, consisting of the cascara, ginger and in some homes honey and other spices. Sometimes it is brewed alone, which gives a unique, fruity, slightly sweet tea that has a body and feel similar to tea.
