Coffee Around the World: How Different Cultures Enjoy Their Brew"

Coffee is a universal language, but the way it’s enjoyed varies widely across different cultures. At Latteh Lah, we’re fascinated by the diverse ways people around the world savor their coffee. From the strong, concentrated espresso of Italy to the sweet, spiced coffee of the Middle East, each culture has its own unique take on this beloved beverage. Let’s take a global coffee tour and explore how different cultures enjoy their brew.

Italy: The Home of Espresso
In Italy, coffee is more than just a drink—it’s a way of life. Italians take their coffee seriously, and the espresso is the star of the show. Served in small, concentrated shots, espresso is meant to be enjoyed quickly, often while standing at a café counter. For a true Italian experience, try our Espresso Intenso blend, which captures the bold, rich flavors of a classic Italian espresso.

Turkey: A Sweet & Spiced Tradition
Turkish coffee is known for its strong, unfiltered brew and rich, aromatic flavors. The coffee is finely ground and boiled with water and sugar in a special pot called a cezve. It’s often flavored with cardamom or other spices, giving it a unique, exotic taste. Serve it with a side of Turkish delight for an authentic experience.

Vietnam: The Rise of Egg Coffee
Vietnam’s coffee culture is as unique as it is delicious. One of the most famous Vietnamese coffee drinks is cà phê trứng, or egg coffee. This decadent drink is made by whisking egg yolks with condensed milk to create a creamy, frothy topping for strong, dark coffee. It’s a must-try for anyone looking to explore the world of coffee.

Ethiopia: The Birthplace of Coffee
Ethiopia is widely regarded as the birthplace of coffee, and the traditional coffee ceremony is a cornerstone of Ethiopian culture. The ceremony involves roasting green coffee beans, grinding them by hand, and brewing the coffee in a clay pot called a jebena. The coffee is served in small cups and often accompanied by popcorn or bread. It’s a communal experience that celebrates the rich history and cultural significance of coffee.
