East Haraaz coffee is one of the best regions for coffee cultivation in Yemen and on an altitude between 1800 to 2600, steeped in tradition the fertile soil is enriched with nutritious elements which assist the growth of unique varieties of coffee. Yemen's produce was best known in the world for producing truly outstanding coffee. Its fields flowed with coffee and fresh fruits and the coffee plants would fill the air with vigour.

Ripe cherries are picked and floated for density. The coffee is then hand-sorted and sun-dried on raised beds.

All coffee is processed naturally and this is the traditional method that has been used for centuries in Yemen.
