Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi Turkish Coffee is a finely ground, medium-roast 100% Arabica blend crafted for traditional cezve preparation and a rich, aromatic cup. Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi continues a coffee-making legacy dating back to 1871, delivering extra-fine ground beans meant specifically for Turkish-style brewing. This 17.6 oz pack of two offers consistent grind and roast suited for slow simmering in a cezve (ibrik), producing the velvety foam and concentrated flavor aficionados expect. The product emphasizes handcrafted tradition combined with modern production standards so you can recreate an authentic experience at home.

How does this coffee perform in a cezve or ibrik?

This blend is ground extra-fine to suspend in water and extract slowly without needing a paper filter. When prepared correctly over low heat, it forms the characteristic foam and dense mouthfeel central to Turkish coffee.

• Extra-fine grind designed for stovetop cezve brewing
• Medium roast that balances brightness and body
• Reliable foam formation when heated gently
• Consistent flavor profile across servings

What flavor and aroma should I expect from this medium roast?

Expect a fragrant, toasted aroma with a smooth, full-bodied character. The medium roast brings out the natural sweetness of Arabica beans while keeping enough structure for a robust, lingering finish.

• Pronounced aroma that enhances the brewing ritual
• Balanced acidity with moderate chocolate and nutty notes
• Velvety texture and concentrated taste per serving
• Notes suited to pair with light pastries or baklava

Is this coffee pre-ground, and how should it be stored?

Yes — the coffee arrives pre-ground to the ultra-fine texture required for Turkish-style brewing. Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container to preserve aroma; avoid refrigeration which can introduce moisture.

• Pre-ground extra-fine for immediate cezve use
• Keep in an opaque, airtight jar to maintain freshness
• Use within weeks of opening for best aroma and foam
• Room-temperature storage away from heat and sunlight

How many servings does a pack of two 17.6 oz tins make?

Yield varies by cup size and strength preference, but a single 17.6 oz tin provides many small Turkish-style servings. Typical preparation uses 6–8 grams of coffee per 60–70 ml demitasse, making each tin suitable for dozens of cups.

• Standard Turkish cup uses about 6–8 g coffee
• Each 17.6 oz (500 g) tin yields roughly 60–80 small servings
• Pack of two extends supply for home or small gatherings
• Great for entertaining or frequent daily rituals

Who is this for? This product is aimed at coffee lovers who value authentic Turkish brewing, cultural ritual, and a reliably rich cup without grinding equipment.
