While I waited for my order, decided to try a Turkish coffee. I LOVED it. The next time I shopped at the market, I made a point of stopping by the falafel place just so I could have one of their great coffees. The owner showed me how to make it, gave me one of their single-serving cooking pots, and sold me a box of Alameed coffee. While my husband continued drinking his normal couple of cups of regular coffee every morning, I enjoyed my little private cup of Alameed. After purchasing a much larger pot (can't remember how to spell the name), I could finally fix enough to insist he share some. He was hooked. Every morning, it's become a looked-forward-to ritual to have our cup of Turkish coffee out on our back deck. After about 1 1/2 yrs of purchasing Alameed from the falafel shop, the owner suddenly switched to another brand. I had never used anything but Alameed. The girl behind the counter assured me I'd like it just as well. My experience was limited, so I assumed they must all taste pretty much the same. The new brand was TERRIBLE! It tasted like over-roasted (burnt) espresso. None of the intriguing, subtle flavor we'd been enjoying for so many months. I let them know it was awful--and apparently others did, too. I asked them to please go back to Alameed. The next time I came in to check, they had replaced the terrible brand with something else. This one was from a little producer in San Francisco. It was in a coated paper bag and said "The Real Stuff" on the outside. I was told this was really good. By this time my confidence had waned, but we gave it a try. Same result. It was just as disappointing as the other substitutes. I kept requesting they go back to stocking Alameed. I finely learned the owner was now operating full time out of his other location in the next city, and would probably not be changing the brand he was currently ordering. I finally found Alameed on desertcart and ordered a few boxes. Ahh! It was wonderful to return to this fantastic little bit of pleasure each morning. While I was searching for Alameed on the internet, I noticed that Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi was touted as the most popular brand in Turkey, and was highly rated. (Alameed actually had a higher rating, but far fewer had tried it.) Out of curiosity, I ordered a container of Efendi just to see how it compared with Alameed. Well, it was very good. My husband and I agree that both Alameed and Efendi are by far the best, but we'd rate Alameed at the top. What makes Alameed and Efendi better? To begin with, the others were all over-roasted, harsh, and bitter. Any hint of cardamom was lost. Even before you brew it, you can tell by the color and the smell. When you open the container, there's a warm, rich, and pleasant smell to both Alameed and Efendi. Their color is similar to a milk-chocolat rather than a dark chocolate. I believe what may make Alameed the best is the perfect amount of cardamom. I found I had to add a pinch of cardamom to Efendi. Our son comes up from Oakland fairly frequently to visit for the weekend. He enjoyed the Turkish coffee enough that he bought some Alameed and began fixing it at home. The shop he purchased it from was out one time, but they also carried Efendi, so he picked up a container. His reaction was similar to ours. Efendi was close, but not as good as Alameed. (Just a note. I fix ours with sugar. Our son drinks his with no sugar.) If you've never purchased Turkish coffee, I suggest you go right to the best and get Alameed. If you've been purchasing a brand you're not really satisfied with, order a box of Alameed and you'll love it. If you've been ordering Efendi and are happy with it, try a box of Alameed and I bet you'll find it's even better. Review: Holy moly! The value isn't there for sure. - I must say, I absolutely love Turkish coffee, and this particular brand delivers an incredibly rich and delightful taste that is hard to beat. The flavor is top-notch, and it has become a favorite in my household. However, I couldn't help but feel a bit taken aback by the hefty $20 price tag for this product. While the quality is undoubtedly excellent, I was determined to find a more budget-friendly option. Luckily, my search led me to a local Middle Eastern market where I discovered the same brand, offering a wider range of flavors, all at a much more reasonable price of around $6. It does make me wonder if the seller is simply buying these products from their local market and then reselling them on desertcart at a significant markup. Considering the price difference, I can't help but contemplate exploring alternative sources myself. Despite my reservations about the cost, I can't deny the deliciousness of this coffee. The flavor alone makes it worth trying, but for regular consumption, I'll definitely be on the lookout for more affordable options. If budget is not a concern for you, this coffee is a definite winner, but for those looking to save a few bucks, a little research might lead to a more cost-effective purchase. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08289XHZB | | Best Sellers Rank | #29,855 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #417 in Ground Coffee | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (2,114) | | Manufacturer | Al Ameed Cofee | | Product Dimensions | 2.25 x 3.5 x 5.5 inches; 8.78 ounces | | UPC | 849639000070 | | Units | 8 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Al Ameed - **Caffeine Content Description:** Caffeinated - **Flavor:** Ground Coffee Light Roast with Cardamom - **Item Form:** Ground - **Roast Level:** Light Roast ## Images ![Al Ameed Gourmet Turkish Ground Coffee Light Roast with Cardamom, 100% Authentic Arabica, Fresh & Finely Ground, 8oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61fHO9pKu1S.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Flavor** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can you make this coffee with a regular coffee maker? Are the beans pre-ground?** A: The beans are pre-ground, fine grade. I guess you can make it with the coffee maker, But , it is usual made with Turkish coffee pot style. **Q: How do you make this coffee? Im new to this coffee. I have the coffee without cardamom, a brass cooking pan.** A: Hi, You have to use Terkish coffee kattle to fill up water with even number of cups, then bring water to boil, remove kattle from fire and add even number of teaspoons coffee, stir and back of the fire and boil to get foaming surface, and ready to drink., keep eye on second boil as may overflow fast. **Q: I'm new to this. Can you explain the flavor difference between the cardamom blend and sada? Which is stronger?** A: The cardamom portion in the Sada is much more than the normal one with cardamom. The coffee itself is darker than the medium coffee and less darkness than the dark one. Hopefully I was clear **Q: Is this instant coffee?** A: Hello, Thanks for asking - Turkish coffee is not instant coffee and will require the preparation of a traditional, authentic Turkish coffee.

(bvut, in fairness, I am typically up much earler so the coffee is not too fresh when he wakes up). I am a little extreme about coffee. I probably have a dozen coffee pots/ makers, to include plunge pots, mokka pots, espresso and drip machines, and assorted pour-over filters. I also buy the best beans I can, preferring single estate. In short, I am pretty picky about coffee. This is probably the only preground coffee I have purchased in 20 years, and I was not sure that it was the best way to go. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. I did expect it to be good, or I would not have purchased it, but it was even better than I expected. I probably should not be reviewing it, since I did not purchase it for myself, but my husband generously offered to share. The cardamom really adds something very nice. The aroma is wonderful, and the coffee is very rich, not bitter, well roasted. It is a very good, very satisfying cup of coffee. I undoubtedly will be purchasing it again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Al Ameed Gourmet Turkish Ground Coffee Light Roast with Cardamom, 100% Authentic Arabica, Fresh & Finely Ground, 8oz - Al Ameed Coffee (Medium Roast with Cardamom, Pack - 1) - Al Ameed Coffee (Dark Roast with Cardamom, Pack - 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/192616804-al-ameed-gourmet-turkish-ground-coffee-light-roast-with-cardamom](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/192616804-al-ameed-gourmet-turkish-ground-coffee-light-roast-with-cardamom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
