Hello everyone, today I would like to greet you with Arabo Cafe or Turkish coffee. Coffee in Turkey is not only a popular drink, but also has a religious significance. The world-class coffee drinking style of the Turkish people has spread to all regions around the world. The Turkish coffee brewing style that has been passed down from the past to the present, even though many generations have passed until it has become a national culture and tradition. The most familiar one is Turkish Coffee, which is a method of using a small pot with a long handle, a wide bottom, a narrow neck, a flared end, and a spout for pouring water made of copper or brass called Shesve or Ibrik. It is a local pot that has been designed for hundreds of years.
Sand coffee is actually not coffee mixed with sand or coffee beans made from sand. But the method of making it comes from sand. This method is to boil coffee on hot sand. They will put fine sand in an iron pan or metal tray and spread the sand surface evenly. Then put it on the stove. The heat from the stove will pass through the sand, making the sand hot as well. Then the sand will make the brewing hot and the coffee will start to boil. The coffee used is finely ground roasted coffee, which is the type of coffee used only with Turkish coffee. It does not have a filter. It has a fragrant aroma and a strong taste.
- And I found sand coffee at the Artigiano in Fiera Fair in Milan, Italy. Before going back, I found a coffee shop that caught my eye because I saw an interesting way to brew coffee. They use the heat from the sand as mentioned above. On the side, there were two golden kettles placed next to each other, so I wanted to try it to see what the taste would be like. Inside the shop, it is decorated in a Turkish style. There were about 3 salespeople. In addition to coffee, there are also Turkish snacks to eat with coffee or as a snack. We lined up to buy coffee.
- We saw that there was a long line, but it didn't take long to brew each time, so we got in line. The price per cup is 2.5 euros. The taste of the coffee is very strong. When I tasted it, it was different from regular coffee. At first, the smell was coffee, but when I tried it, I got a different taste.
- The container that holds the coffee is a paper cup for convenience and speed. There is no table to sit at. In addition to coffee, there is also tea. It is a tea maker in the shop. It should be the style of this place because the tea maker is also made of brass. It looks charming and unique.
- It was strangely delicious. The coffee here does not contain sugar, but there is Separate sugar packets, those who like sweet can add it. Anyone who has tried drinking coffee or made coffee in different forms, please share.
And this is another one of my favorite cups of coffee. I hope everyone enjoys the sand coffee in this post. Thank you for following. Have a nice day.
