Flavor Description

A "vintage" profile. Rather than modern pristine clarity, it offers complex spice notes like black pepper, cardamom, and dried tangerine peel. Heavy mouthfeel, reminiscent of historical concentrated tea.

Process Detail

Howari still employs primitive farm-drying on earth or stone steps. This imbues the beans with a unique earthy and leathery aroma—the purest form of Yemeni coffee heritage.

Brewing Notes

  • French Press: Highly recommended to preserve oils, allowing the wild herbal and dark chocolate notes to fully express themselves.
  • Tip: Not for those seeking bright acidity, but an irreplaceable treasure for those hunting the "original" taste of coffee.
