Its taste is recognized as the most "original" taste of coffee, and it is a taste with a long history. This is a real way to make coffee. It grinds roasted coffee beans into powder and boils them directly with water in a special Turkish pot without filtration, which is why Turkish coffee tastes stronger than other coffee. Because of this, when you drink the very strong coffee, you will find a thick and soft coffee residue at the bottom of the cup.
