Yemen Mocca Sanani
Related entries in Coffee ReviewsToday we’re drinking… Yemen Mocca Sanani.
It’s a very fruity coffee. More funky in taste than a lot we’ve been drinking. A spiciness that was unexpected, even while being a smooth coffee. Many people think it’s akin to an Ethiopian coffee, but better (or so I can find in other reviews). I enjoy the finish of this coffee quite a bit – even more than the first taste.
I found it a little overpowering at first. It could be due to the fact that it was roasted only yesterday, which can affect the flavour profile.

I had a coffee from Yemen the other day at the Elysian Room, but I don’t remember the name, so I don’t know if it’s the same one you’re talking about. Initially I found it very interesting and different, with a sort of licorice flavour, but by the end of the cup it had really started to turn me off. I don’t think I would drink it again anytime soon, but I’m glad I did, just for the experience.
At the moment I’m happy enough sticking to that fantastic Columbia Palacio that’s at Artigiano now.
