All ram's horn and Yemenite shofars sold by HaSOFER are made in Israel, certified kosher by HaSOFER's rabbinical supervisors and checked by our staff for quality of sound and ease of use.
Traditional ram's horn shofars are made from the horns of sheep while Yemenite shofars are made from the horns of kudu antelope.
Yemenite shofars, made from the horns of kudu antelope, are very long, with a characteristic spiral shape.
Yemenite Jews (תימני, Standard Hebrew Temani, Tiberian Hebrew Têmānî; plural תימנים, Standard Hebrew Temanim, Tiberian Hebrew Têmānîm) are those Jews who live, or whose recent ancestors lived, in Yemen (תימן; "far south", Standard Hebrew Teman, Tiberian Hebrew Têmān), a nation on the southern tip of the Arabian peninsula.
The three main groups of Yemenite Jews are the Baladi, the Shami and the Rambamists.
Yemenite Jews were acquainted with the works of Saadia Gaon, Rashi, Kimhi, Nahmanides, Yehudah ha Levy, and Isaac Arama, besides producing a number of exegetes from among themselves.
