Istanbul is one of the world's great cities, the former capital of mighty empires. Its historic heart is the hilly, waterfront neighbourhood of Sultan Ahmet, part of the Fatih District on the European side of the city. 

Turkish coffee is distinctive for its strong taste, high caffeine and preparation method. We use our speciality grade Yemeni beans from Hajah. We dark roast it by hand and grind finely to perfection. Each pack is roasted and prepared to order.

To prepare Turkish coffee, combine finely ground Turkish coffee with water and sugar (if desired) in a small pot called a "cezve", heat slowly until the coffee begins to foam, then carefully remove from heat when it rises to the top of the pot, repeating this process a couple of times to create a thick foam, and finally pour the coffee into small cups, allowing the grounds to settle to the bottom; traditionally served with a glass of water on the side.
