„The true Arabian Mocha, from North Yemen, is stillgrown as it probably was over a thousand years ago, on irrigated terraces clinging to thesides of semiarid mountains; water is directed through little rock-lined channels to theroots of the plants, which are shaded from the desert sun by rows of poplars. The beansare also processed as they have been for centuries; even the best grades (Mocha Extra) arenatural coffees, dried with the fruit still attached to the beans. The dried husk is laterremoved by millstone or other primitive methods, which accounts for the rough, irregularlook of the beans. The names in Yemen coffee are also irregular; no two authorities agreeas to whether they properly indicate grade, district, or variety of bean.“

„01). Age-adjusted RR for all stroke, including transient ischemic attack, was 0.78 (95% confidence interval [Cl], 0.62 to 0.98) for each increase of three servings per day. For completed stroke the RR was 0.74 (95% Cl, 0.57 to 0.96); for completed stroke of ischemic origin the RR was 0.76 (95% Cl, 0.57 to 1.02); and for completed stroke of hemorrhagic origin, 0.49 (95% Cl, 0.25 to 0.95). Adjustment for body mass index, cigarette smoking, glucose intolerance, physical activity, blood pressure, serum cholesterol, and intake of energy, ethanol, and fat did not materially change the results.“

„From brewing water temperature to the freshness of the coffee, any mistake will reduce texture, flavor, and crema. Espresso coffee made from stale beans will always dribble out of the spout, clinging to the metal like a kitty in a tree afraid to drop into the cup. Once in the cup it will feature a whitish shred of foam across a thin black gruel. It is Not Real Attractive Espresso.“

No chemicals are used in its production, and it is no doubt organic. Mocha is a balanced coffee with medium to full body, good acidity and chocolate undertones.“
