Rain in mountainous regions of Yemen

Published : August 1, 2022

In recent weeks, Yemen has been blessed with rain. Not only in the low regions, but also in the mountainous regions where coffee is grown! This has had a huge impact on the people of Yemen, especially those who live in higher regions like Haraz, as it has not rained there for many months.

The artist on the video is singing a prayer to God. He expresses his gratitude for the blessings, generosity and kindness. The singer is speaking not only for himself, but for all the people witnessing the rain on the plateau and realizing that their water reserves can be replenished!

Since the rains have affected many regions where we operate, we will be distributing coffee plants from our nurseries to local farmers in the next few days to start a new growing season.

Thank you for your regular support!

Sincerely yours,

Y30 team

This special celebration was more than just raising a cup; it was a journey of discovery, tracing the story that begins with a tiny bean nurtured in fertile mountain soil and ends with a cup that carries joy, inspiration, and community.

 

Under the theme “The Magical Journey… From Bean to Cup,” the event highlighted coffee as a global symbol of unity — a bridge connecting cultures, stories, and people across continents.

 

Each coffee bean represents dedication, craftsmanship, and passion — from the farmer’s care to the barista’s artistry.

 

One of the event’s most memorable moments was the engaging presence of barista and coffee expert Ammar Al-Ahlasi, who filled the room with enthusiasm and the irresistible aroma of freshly brewed coffee.

 

He came not just to serve coffee, but to share knowledge and unveil the secrets behind this enchanting beverage.

 

Ammar emphasized that brewing coffee is both an art and a ritual — from choosing the right grind size to controlling the water temperature and mastering the pouring technique. Every detail matters.

 

Each drop of water that touches the ground extracts not just flavor, but also a story, a feeling, and a sense of connection — creating a cup that nourishes the soul as much as the senses.

 

In closing, the Y30closing, the Y30 Association, in collaboration with the Y30 Institute, affirmed that this event was more than just a celebration — it was a heartfelt tribute to the timeless values that coffee embodies: dedication, creativity, and human connection.

 

Every cup tells a journey — from the earth to the heart — reminding us that coffee is not merely a beverage, but a way of life.
