Turkish coffee!
I made my wife a Turkish coffee. I was was second attempt ever at making that style of coffee and I loved it.
Not Laurene's Favorite way to have a coffee. No milk for a start. And it is a bittersweet taste.
If you have never had Turkish coffee I suggest you give one a try. You might just love it. I would not have it every day, but every now and again it is a nice treat. Although I should specify that I'm talking about Blue Sky's Bulkan Express coffee and not some 3 year old ground coffee from a Turkish supply shop or cafe. Not that I'm pushing Blue Sky but from what I have seen, tasted and heard about some Turkish coffee you might want to double check it's freshness and how it's made before you take the big step.
Ours is fresh and made quite sweet. You could do it at home also with any coffee as long as it's not too strong and ground superfine. Checkout Coffee Geek for a tutorial.
The reason for my new found coffee experience is Blue Sky has just launched it's Turkish style coffee. We had a huge launch and I had to make pots of coffee for Turkish, Greek, Serbian and other eastern european people. It was weird. I am not of their culture and I have very little experience of the culture. So me making them a style of coffee that is so ingrained in their lives was a very random experience.
Another great style is "Sugar Shots"
- Life is way to short for bad coffee.
