Coffee shop opens in Sacramento serving ‘Yemen's liquid gold'

A Yemeni coffee franchise has opened its first California location in Sacramento. Matari Coffee made its debut Monday at 2601 J St. in Sacramento’s Marshall School neighborhood. The cafe serves hot espresso, chai, frappuccino, mojitos, matcha and other iced and hot sweet beverages. Named after the Bani Matar region in Sana’a, Yemen, the cafe uses beans from the country’s mountains. The owners of Matari Coffee said its drinks are more than “just a beverage.” They called it a legacy. “Known for its distinct winey acidity and deep chocolate undertones, these beans are still harvested using ancestral methods passed down through generations,” according to the company’s website. Matari Coffee uses a dry-processed method for its beans in order to “preserve the wild, fruity notes that coffee connoisseurs around the globe hunt for,” the site said of its high-altitude specialty coffee beans. “When you sip a Matari roast, you aren’t just tasting coffee—you are tasting five centuries of Yemeni agricultural pride.” The business considers its Matari coffee as “Yemen’s Liquid Gold,” a reference to the coffee’s heritage, rarity and lower acidity. Some of Matari Coffee's drinks include an iced pistachio latte, an iced banana matcha, and a Turkish dark roast. Their showcase

A Sacramento-area veteran suffered from PTSD. This service dog changed his life

Tony Escue’s service dog Hugh has helped him regain some of the independence he thought he’d lost — and shown him what life beyond constant anxiety could look like. Escue, a 32-year-old Orangevale resident, served for nearly 10 years in the U.S. Army before his medical retirement in 2023. That year, he was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, after years of symptoms that had made it difficult for him to go places on his own. He turned to Canine Companions, a Santa Rosa-based nonprofit that helps veterans and others by connecting them with service dogs. This led Escue to Hugh, a Labrador mix who is almost 4. Hugh can do everything from turning on lights to tucking himself into the carry-on bag area under an airplane seat so he can ride with Escue, who takes him everywhere. “I was so trapped in my head for so long – years,” Escue said during an interview at Orangevale Community Park with Hugh at his side. “He really helped me to be able to have some independence and have some freedom in my life, and really give my family the freedom that I was worried that they were missing out on.” Why Escue
