Ibrik / Cezve

Cardamom

Ibrik / Cezve Traditional by Gota Team

Reflecting cardamom-spiced ibrik traditions across the Middle East, this preparation perfumes extra-fine coffee as it heats. It seeks a concentrated, warming cup whose aromatic spice lifts rather than covers the roast.

Notes

Lightly crush 1 pod to 2 pod green cardamom pods and mix them evenly through the grounds before adding water. Keep the heat low; aggressive boiling drives off the spice's brighter aroma and makes its woody side dominant.
