Al-Khanshali Estates is the newest evolution in my journey as a coffee professional and farmer—a collection of owned and partner coffee estates in Yemen where our primary goal is to push the envelope and tap deeply into the incredible potential of Yemeni coffee. Alkhanshali Estate One is our crown jewel, a coffee farm we own and operate where we have intimate control over every step of the coffee production process.

Lot 1 was an absolute standout in our most recent harvest, coming from one of the highest elevation peaks on our farm, largely under shade-grown conditions, and processed using the innovative ASD (Anaerobic Slow Dry) method. This is the same coffee processing method used earlier this year at the Best of Panama auction by Lamastus Estates, which broke the world record for the most expensive coffee ever sold, reaching an incredible $10,013 per kilo. Under the mentorship of Wilford Lamastus and his family, we applied this same process to craft this extraordinary coffee.

Lot 1 offers an exotic journey with every sip. You’ll discover notes of succulent peach, vibrant orange marmalade, tropical kiwi, ripe strawberries, and crisp watermelon. It’s a dazzling array of bright, sweet, and complex fruit flavors—perfect as a gift or to indulge in yourself.
