World Explorations Istanbul Espresso
World Explorations Istanbul Espresso takes you back in time to the original coffeehouses. This intense ambrosial brew bursts with boldness, wild ripe fruits, and a delicate almond touch. Thick and velvety in homage to Turkish coffee, its Ethiopian Arabica and Indian Robusta remind us of this city at the crossroads of the ancient coffee trade routes. It’s a blend as cosmopolitan as the crowd gathered in an Istanbul coffeehouse.
Enjoy it like a local: Accompany it with a glass of water and a piece of Turkish Delight.
Roasting
This classic split-roast has average intensity and roasting time. The batches are separated in arabicas and robustas for a more precise roast.
With milk
In a latte machiatto, Istanbul is surprisingly aromatic, with exotic fruit notes and a jammy touch. It is also sweet and smooth, with a cereal finish.
The Story
The thick, velvety character of World Explorations Istanbul Espresso is a modern tribute to the ancient traditional Turkish brewing method—that lovely long-handled brass or copper coffee pot that goes by the names of cezve and ibrik. The taste of this oldest of coffee brewing traditions is celebrated by the blend’s Ethiopian Arabica beans—a coffee as old as time. The Indian Robusta tells the story of how coffee first escaped and journeyed out of Africa. These coffees come together to bring a wonderfully complex profile—of both bitterness and acidity, wild fruitiness and roasted notes.
