The delicious flavors include traditional, mixed, mastic gum, cardamom, caramel, chocolate, hazelnut, and strawberry.

In order to support women empowerment in the post-covid-19 era, 5% of the sales from each blend will also be donated to the mentorship and leadership programs of Turkish Coffee Lady Foundation, a non-profit organization established in Washington D.C. in March 2020. Our team believes that one woman's impact can reverberate across her community for generations to come like a pebble creating ripples. The founder of the specialty coffee business is a Turkish American mother entrepreneur, who has been traveling the world with an award-winning "Turkish Coffee Truck" since 2012 as a coffee diplomacy initiative. She launched her small business in 2017 with a mission of building a global community of coffee lovers and is committed to inspiring women to pursue their dreams.
