Coffee ‘Mocha’
is an Arabica variety
originating from Yemen
where in the early coffee
trade it was exported
from the port of Mocha.
The bean is smaller than
the standard Arabica
coffee bean, yet it’s
considered high quality
for its rich flavor. The
tree is unique with small
narrow leaves and when
young, it has a loose
and open habit. As it matures. it fills in and creates a dense, bushy plant. Coffee
‘Mocha’ is the varietal name and should not be confused with Mocha coffee that’s
prepared from mixing coffee and chocolate together.
