The difference between original and imitation Mehmet Efendi coffee
Although Mehmet Efendi coffee is widespread in most countries of the world, this has caused some people to exploit this and sell counterfeit coffee bearing the same name. Therefore, it is recommended to pay attention to the advantages that the original Mehmet Efendi coffee has to distinguish it from imitation coffee, the most prominent of which are:
Color: The color of the original coffee is dark, while the color of the imitation coffee is light.
Smell: Original coffee carries the aroma of freshly roasted coffee in the traditional Turkish way, while imitation coffee lacks this distinctive aroma.
Foam: Original coffee is characterized by having foam that appears on the surface of the cup and does not disappear very quickly like other types of imitation coffee.

The beginning of Mehmet Efendi Coffee was in 1871, when Mehmet Efendi was helping his father in a coffee roasting and selling shop. At a young age, he was preparing traditional Turkish coffee with simple hand tools. Thus, Mehmet Efendi’s shop was the first shop to sell roasted and ground coffee, after coffee beans were sold to people without roasting, and they ground and roasted them themselves at home.
Mehmet Efendi died in 1932, but his profession, which he inherited from his father, was also passed on to his children, who preserved the original taste of Mehmet Efendi coffee and developed the methods of making it by bringing in the latest equipment, machinery, and equipment. Until people from all over the world came to Mehmet Efendi shops in the Eminonu area in Istanbul, in addition to exporting coffee to dozens of countries, and selling tons of it on a daily basis.
