Athar Turkish Coffee

Athar starts with specialty-grade Brazilian coffee, naturally processed and grown at 1200 meters. We roast it to a medium profile in small batches here in Dubai, then grind it extra fine, the way Turkish coffee needs it.

The result is a thick, velvety cup with deep cocoa, toasted hazelnut and a soft dried-fruit sweetness, smooth all the way to the last sip.

You'll need a cezve (Turkish coffee pot), cold water and a small coffee cup.

1. Measure. For each cup, add one heaped teaspoon of Athar (about 7g) and one small cup of cold water (about 70ml) to the cezve. Add sugar now if you take it, and a pinch of ground cardamom if you like.
2. Stir once. Mix until all the coffee is wet, then stop stirring.
3. Heat slowly. Warm it on low to medium heat. Never let it boil.
4. Catch the foam. As the foam rises toward the rim, lift the cezve off the heat and spoon a little foam into each cup.
5. Pour and rest. Return it to the heat for a few seconds so it rises once more, then pour slowly. Let the cup settle for a minute so the grounds sink before you sip.

💡 Brew it in our OTTO Modern Turkish Coffee Pot, a 550ml stainless steel cezve in Brick or Sage.

• Keep it sealed in its original bag or transfer it to an airtight container
• Store in a cool, dark place, away from light, heat and moisture
• Avoid refrigeration or freezing
• Once opened, enjoy within about a month for the fullest flavor

💡 Ground coffee loses aroma faster than whole beans, so always close the bag tightly after each use.
