It’s hard to tell how many people in the world begin their day with a cup of coffee. But it’s easy to admit that coffee is the start to any dining experience in Turkey. Extra strong, aromatic, freshly brewed — this irresistible beverage is emblematic to Turkish cuisine. 

What do we need to know about Turkish coffee styles? No matter what coffee variety is brewed, Turks distinguish four preparations depending on sweetness. Plain coffee is called sade, while the slightly sweet variation is referred to as az şekerli.If you prefer your coffee medium sweet, order a cup of orta şekerli. For maximum sweetness, go with sweet şekerli.
