ORGANIC TURKISH COFFEE GIFT BOX

Description

Our Turkish Coffee plunges into the exquisite flavors of coffee history. Before landing in America and before Captain Smith discovered it on his travels in Turkey, coffee had become synonymous with Turkish culture; a social ritual and symbol of community. Through their conquest of a rival kingdom the Turkish Empire discovered something that would change the course of their history and that of the entire world; Ethiopian Coffee, the first single origin coffee.

What is now Ethiopia was once an ancient empire vying for dominance with Rome, China and Persia. The Kingdom of Aksum loomed as a world power trading in riches of precious metals, spices and other coveted commodities of the time. Aksum’s tidal wave of influence has long since receded, leaving a new legacy to last throughout the ages; the first single origin coffee. Discovered in the Kingdom of Aksum, brought to the Ottoman Empire, from ancient history to today; Organic Yergacheffe remains the perfect origin for Turkish Coffee & the perfect medium for community. Hand ground, swirling with sweet and spicy notes, our Turkish Coffee is medium roasted with an 89 cup score. Bazaar Coffee is coffee for community and our Turkish Coffee is the perfect pairing as it is meant to be shared. Our Turkish Coffee comes with a rustic cezve and $5 off toward your next choice of Bazaar Coffee.

To prepare our Turkish Coffee begin with cool, filtered water measured by the cup you plan to drink your coffee from (we use espresso cups). Use your cup to measure the water into your pot, about one and a half cups per serving. Measure one heaping tablespoon of Bazaar Coffee’s Turkish Coffee per serving, if you prefer sugar add it and stir it all together well. Using medium heat bring to a boil slowly over about 3 minutes watching closely for a rich foam to rise. Carefully scoop some of the foam into each cup then pour half of the coffee into the cups. After allowing the remaining coffee to boil for another 10 seconds pour the rest of the coffee. Turkish Coffee is traditionally served with cold water, a sweet treat and with respect, is always served to guests eldest first.
