Wow! A new horizon in coffee culture! In Yemen the coffee husk is ground and brewed for a hot drink called qishr. Qishr is consumed even more widely than coffee brewed from roasted beans. Now you can buy the concentrate for iced qishr! @alialsonidar says it’s great!

Including you @khalfanovic! Congratulations!
