Roaster’s Analysis

The Roast
City+ (Medium)
Carefully developed to highlight rustic, wine-like acidity while preserving complex sugars.

Rest Window
7 Days Post-Roast
Peak aromatics and sweetness are achieved after one week of degassing.
Heritage Hallmark

Mosaic DNA & Color

Grown at extreme altitudes up to 2,500m, these heirloom beans possess natural density variations. This results in a non-uniform roast color—a definitive sign of original, un-hybridized coffee genetics.

Origin Bani Matar, Yemen
Process Sun-Dried Natural
Variety Yemen Heirloom
Altitude 2,400 – 2,500m
