LET'S TASTE WHAT THE OTTOMANS WERE BRAGGING ABOUT.

OUR ISTANBUL ROAST IS DARK, RICH AND FULL-BODIED, WITH A ROBUST FOUNDATION OF BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE, ROASTED NUTS, AND A HINT OF CHERRY. WE LOVE ISTANBUL FOR ITS STRENGTH AND ITS DELIGHTFUL, NUANCED SMOKY FINISH.

WE RECOMMEND YOU SERVE ISTANBUL WITH SUGAR OR HONEY, OR A TOUCH OF SWEET CREAM (OR BOTH!). FOR A CLASSIC ISTANBUL EXPERIENCE, ADD A DASH OF CINNAMON OR CARDOMOM AND SERVE WITH TURKISH DELIGHT.

WITHOUT A VISIT TO THE BUSTLING KAPALIÇARSI GRAND BAZAAR, YOU CAN KNOW WHAT IT TASTES LIKE.

THIS CLASSIC BLEND OF BRAZIL AND SUMATRA IS JUST RIGHT FOR:

How you can prepare Istanbul

ROAST LEVEL:

DARK ROAST: ISTANBUL'S ROASTING STYLE TAKES THE BEANS INTO THE SECOND CRACK, BUT NOT SO FAR AS TO BURN THE BEANS. IT'S A DELICATE PROCESS, SO THE ROASTING TAKES A LITTLE LONGER.

WHILE THIS IS A SPECIALTY COFFEE ROAST, WE PROUDLY TAKE THE BEAN ROASTING INTO THE REALM OF DEVELOPING THE BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE NOTES THAT ISTANBUL IS KNOWN FOR. THE RESULTING AROMAS AND TASTE ARE AMAZING.

WE PRECISELY CONTROL OUR ROAST USING A LORING S35 KESTREL ROASTER, ONE OF THE MOST EFFICIENT MODERN ROASTERS WITH THE LOWEST CARBON FOOTPRINT.

FLAVOR PROFILE:

OUR ISTANBUL ROAST IS ALL ABOUT DARKER-ROASTED FLAVORS, LIKE BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE, TOASTED NUTS, AND A HINT OF RIPE CHERRY ON THE PALATE.

BECAUSE OF HOW WE ROAST, THERE'S A DISTINCTIVE BUT NUANCED SMOKY FINISH IN THE CUP.

ISTANBUL IS PERFECT FOR THOSE WHO LOVE A ROBUST CUP OF COFFEE THAT IS PROUDLY TURKISH IN STYLE.

ORIGIN:

OUR ISTANBUL ROAST IS AN AUTHENTIC BLEND OF TWO COFFEE BEAN ORIGINS YOU FIND IN THE HIGHEST QUALITY COFFEES IN ISTANBUL, CONSISTING OF:

  • 60% BRAZIL SANTO ANDRE, NATURAL
  • 40% SUMATRA (JAVA) JAMPIT, WASHED

THE BLEND OF THE TWO DISTINCTIVE STYLES (ONE NATURAL, ONE WASHED) MAKES FOR AN FASCINATING FLAVOR PROFILE IN THE CUP.

Nice roast

Reminds me of Turkish coffee for sure, brewed up mine in a Chemex and was pleased with the smooth, smoky tate. Smells amazing when brewing up!

Amazing

I chose to travel to Istanbul- a place I’ve never been. My first flavor of the place had to be an espresso. Airplane coffee just doesn’t do it!! I sat outside and enjoyed the new view, inhaled the espresso and then had a sip. My gosh!! My tastebuds woke up! Chocolate- cardamom??? It was smooth, it was delicious, it was like nothing I’d ever had before but definitely need more of!
Thank you for taking me there!

First time trying--I am a fan!

This was my first time trying Turkish Coffee and having ordered our first bag of Du Coffee Istanbul, I can say that both my husband and I are now devotees! The fragrance/aroma is second-to-none--I appreciate the aroma of coffee almost as much as i do the taste, and Istanbul does not disappoint on either front. Two thumbs up! Will order again.

This is full bodied

Brewed your istanbul in my Hario v60 and found it to be full-bodied with earthy notes. The taste was a tasty mix of nutty and caramelly notes, really enjoying it.

go drip

Used my Chemex to extract the most from the Istanbul beans. Smooth, full-bodied and aromatic cup of joe with hints of cardamom and hazelnut. 5*
