BREW GUIDE
With Cezve
It only takes two minutes to prepare Turkish Coffee. Mehmet Efendi’s original finely ground Turkish Coffee is traditionally prepared in a “cezve”, a small long-handled pot.
1)Use a coffee cup to measure drinking water, and put it in the cezve.
2)Add one teaspoon coffee per cup (6 g) and sugar if needed.
3)Heat slowly, stirring well, until the coffee stars to foam.
4)Gently pour a little of the foam into each cup.
5)Bring the coffee to another boil, and gently fill each cup.
6)It is customary to serve Turkish Coffee with a glass of water. The water prepares the mouth for the coffee’s flavor.
DEFINITION AND HISTORY
Turkish Coffee is the name given to a type of coffee whose preparation and brewing techniques were invented by the Turks. It has a unique taste, froth, aroma, brewing technique and presentation… in other words it has its own identity and tradition.
The first coffee was made in the Arabian Peninsula by boiling coffee cherries. The new method invented by the Turks revealed coffee’s true flavour and peerless aroma. The Turks introduced coffee to Europe where for many years it was prepared and consumed as Turkish Coffee.
Turkish Coffee is made from high quality arabica coffee beans from Central and South America that are blended and carefully roasted, then very finely ground. The coffee is mixed with water and the desired amount of sugar and cooked in a “cezve”, or Turkish coffeepot. The coffee is served in small cups. The coffee must be left to stand for a short time after serving to allow the grounds to settle at the bottom of the cup.
In contrast to other brewing methods, it is especially important that the coffee comes to a boil while brewing. The finely ground coffee is brought to a slow boil over low heat.
Thanks to its strong body, delicious flavour and long-lasting aroma, a cup of steaming hot Turkish coffee is a guaranteed favourite with all coffee lovers.
HISTORY
Istanbul was introduced to coffee in 1543 by Özdemir Pasha, the Ottoman Governor of Yemen, who had grown to love the drink while stationed in that country.
Prepared in a cezve or “güğüm” (copper vessel) using the technique invented by the Turks, the drink became known as Turkish Coffee.
The Turkish public became acquainted with coffee through the establishment of coffeehouses; the first coffeehouse opened in the district of Tahtakale in 1554 and others rapidly cropped up all over the city. Coffeehouses and coffee culture soon became an integral part of Istanbul social culture; people came here throughout the day to read books and beautiful texts, play chess and backgammon and discuss poetry and literature.
As coffee became a staple in palace cuisine as well as in private homes, its consumption increased dramatically. The raw beans were roasted in pans and then ground in mortars. The coffee was then brewed in cezves and served with great care to esteemed friends.
Thanks to the efforts of merchants and travellers who passed through Istanbul, and even Ottoman ambassadors, Turkish Coffee’s renown soon spread to Europe and ultimately to the whole world.
In 1871, Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi was the first company to sell roasted and ground coffee to the public.
Today, Turkish Coffee is synonymous with Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi both in Turkey and around the world.

I had this in my cart for a while, going back and forth on it. After visiting my favorite Turkish restaurant that’s a bit over an hour away and having more coffee, it solidified it for me- I need this in my life regularly. Before making a purchase, I inquired about a couple of things and had a response within minutes completely answering all my questions. The kindness and prompt customer service that I was given far surpassed all expectations. Then today I see my UPS driver drop something off at my front door. Running out of my shop to get my package, I tore into it like a kid on Christmas. It far exceeded what I thought I’d get; it is absolutely stunning and perfect!! Truly so grateful to own something so beautiful and to share a cup of the best coffee with my husband every morning before work. Thank you so much!
