yemen coffee
by qima cafe · london, uk
expect raisin. this is yemen . al haymtain peaberry, a natural yemen from qima cafe.
this coffee leads with raisin, a dried-fruit sweetness that comes through clearly as a result of the natural processing method. expect a fruit-forward cup with depth rather than brightness.
it is grown in yemen and processed using the natural method, meaning the whole coffee cherry is dried with the bean inside, which draws sugars and fruit character into the final cup. the peaberry designation means each cherry produced a single rounded bean rather than the usual two flat-sided seeds.
filter brewing or french press will give the sweetness and body room to develop without masking the raisin notes. avoid over-extraction by keeping your water temperature around 90 to 93 degrees celsius and adjusting grind size to taste.
qima cafe sits on warren street like it's been waiting for you to find it. the 4.8-star rating from nearly 500 reviews tells one story, but the real narrative happens when you taste what they're doing with their beans. this isn't the kind of place that talks endlessly about their process. they just do the work. the espresso pulls clean and bright, with the kind of balance that makes you understand why people become coffee obsessives. pastries arrive warm from wherever they source them, pairing beautifully with whatever's in your cup. regulars know the rhythm here. they've found something that works and they stick with it. warren street has plenty of options, but qima operates differently than the chains surrounding it. smaller batches, more attention, actual care in every pour. sometimes the best places are the ones that don't need to shout about what they're doing.
