(of) MALA LECHE

A Spanish expression meaning someone is angry… which is precisely how Kaldi, an Ethiopian shepherd (or was he Yemeni?), felt when he saw his goats going crazy after gorging themselves on the red berries that bloomed on that bush.

GOOD COFFEE

This is what Kaldi's monk friend obtained from those berries, after roasting them, grinding them and infusing them.

We will never know… But at Malakabra we like good stories. We have been living ours for more than 20 years and the time has come to share it with you.
