Tradition, although often forgotten over time, sometimes resurfaces in unexpected periods. Chickpea coffee emerges as a product of a challenging era that bears witness to Turkey's history. During World War I, the scarcity of coffee imports led people to seek new and extraordinary flavors. It is precisely in this period that chickpea coffee took the stage.
Chickpea coffee was born during a time when coffee imports were impossible, offering an alternative beverage that catered to people's palates. The fundamental ingredient of this unique drink was roasted chickpea seeds. Ground to perfection, chickpea coffee provided an experience reminiscent of regular coffee while introducing its own distinctive flavor.
