Turkish Coffee Beans

The first step in making delicious Turkish coffee is to make the right coffee bean choice. Turkish coffee is made by using beans of Coffee Arabica from a variety of coffee producing countries, but a majority of Turkish coffee beans have been imported from Brazil beginning as early as the 18th century, when it became clear that the Yemeni production was not going to be sufficient to meet the demand in the Ottoman lands. Coffee beans are judged based on characteristics such flavor, aftertaste, aroma, taste balance and degree of sweetness. You should try different beans of Coffee Arabica from different countries and choose the one you like best. Ignore any consideration of taste with milk, as adding milk to Turkish coffee, under any circumstance, is a no-no and may even offend a purist!
