The Coffees of Yemen (#)
„Perhaps the distinctinion is that a Mattari can mean a "Matar-like" coffee, whereas this lot is truly grown in the geographic Bani Matar area.) These coffees have a restrained fruitiness that lingers under the spice notes, and that gives this cup an added dimension I enjoy .Bani Matar region is east of the capital of Sana, grown on terraces in the rugged mountain landscape, and processed in the coffee pod (dry-processed) in the most rustic of ways. These are some of the highest-grown coffees in the world (reported altitudes of 8000 feet with the Hirazi coffees -an impossibility in other parts of the world). This cup has a more rounded flavor profile than other Yemeni coffees, with great aromatics.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„Ismaili, regardless of whether the name describes cultivar or region, is also likely to be excellent but a bit gentler and less powerful than Mattari. The market name Sanani describes a blend of coffees from various regions west of Sana'a, and is typically more balanced, less acidy, and less complex than coffees marketed as Mattari, Hirazi, or Ismaili. Sanani usually includes somewhat lower-grown coffees from districts like Rami.“

„In February we got information from GX about Fair Trade coffee to start a Fair Trade Coffee campaign at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, MA. We have Starbucks in our library and campus center, and Maxwell House in the dorms (Kraft Foods). Since then we've got the administration to agree to sell Equal Exchange in the library and campus center, and the college dining services has agreed to provide Fair Trade coffee to the all the dorms during Earth Week. If it goes over well, we will have Fair Trade everywhere on campus soon!“
