Unimpressed - I tried to get a chain from "Mocca, Yemen" to "Jimma". I got a whole long list of stuff about aircraft engines (I do get that the author was trying to make non-obvious links).
Mocca is a port on the Red Sea in Yemen. The Ottoman Turks used to require all shipping entering the Red Sea to put in at Mocca so their coffee could be taxed. Mocca is a port town; they don't actually grow coffee in the town, it comes from a mountainous region to the North.
Jimma is a coffee-producing region in Ethiopia, south of the entrance to the Red Sea.
I just bought 250g of beans labelled "Mocca Djimmah"; the vendor couldn't tell me whether it came from Yemen or Ethopia. My guess is that exports from Yemen are "challenged" just now, but I'd like to taste some coffee from the original home of coffee.
