Description
An image of a typical Turkish Coffee Shoppe located along a pedestrian street in Istanbul Turkey. There is an art to preparing a proper Turkish Coffee and the person running a coffee stand must be skilled at this task. The gentleman in the photo is ready to serve his next customer.
Turkish coffee (Turkish: Türk kahvesi) is a method of preparing unfiltered coffee. Roasted and then finely ground coffee beans are boiled in a pot (cezve), usually with sugar, and served in a cup where the grounds are allowed to settle. At present, it is found in the Middle East, North Africa, the Caucasus, the Balkans, Bali, and Eastern Europe.
Turkish Coffee is an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Turkey confirmed by UNESCO.
