Quick answerFor many coffee lovers, yes. Yemeni coffee costs more than supermarket coffee because Yemen's harvests are tiny, cherries are hand-picked and sun-dried on mountain terraces, and getting beans out of Yemen is difficult. But a 250 g bag makes about 16-20 cups, so even premium Yemeni coffee usually costs less per cup than a cafe latte.
Why it costs more
- Very small production by world standards
- Hand labor on steep terraces
- Complex export logistics
- Fresh small-batch roasting
