“ours.” As in our soil, our harvest, our cup.

Why Yedu

The true taste of healthy soil and honest labour.

Soil

Regeneratively grown

Our coffees come from farms that feed their soil instead of stripping it — families who have nurtured the same land for generations. You can taste the difference that living soil makes.

Hands

Fairer prices, hand-sorted

We pay well above commodity price for meticulously hand-sorted Arabica and Robusta from exclusive lots. Better pay, better sorting, better coffee — in that order.

Roast

Roasted here, in small batches

Everything is roasted in-house at Heinrichstrasse 108, in batches small enough that we know each one by name. What you buy was green coffee days before.

“Yedu” means ours — because this coffee belongs to the people who grow it, the people who roast it, and the people who drink it.

The coffee window

Espresso & V60, straight through the window.

No seats, no fuss — just a window on Heinrichstrasse where we pull espresso and brew V60 filter coffee from whichever African lots are singing that week.

Come for a cup, leave with a bag. Every coffee we serve is also on the shelf as freshly roasted whole beans, and we'll grind for your brewer at home if you like.

Card, debit and contactless payments welcome — no cash needed.

Our first roast had to come from where our name comes from. This washed Arabica is grown by smallholder families in the Honde Valley on Zimbabwe's eastern border — regenerative plots shaded by old-growth trees, picked ripe, hand-sorted twice. We bought the entire lot. It will never be roasted by anyone else.
