Coffee served without milk
Contexto cultural
While tea is the national drink, coffee is a symbol of modern Baku. It is often served with a glass of water to cleanse the palate. Many Azerbaijanis enjoy Turkish coffee, but 'qara qəhvə' usually refers to European-style black coffee (Americano/Filter). Due to historical ties, many people use the word 'kofe' instead of 'qəhvə'. 'Qara kofe' is very common in casual speech. In the 'Third Wave' coffee shops of Baku, ordering 'qara qəhvə' shows you appreciate the bean's origin without masking it with milk.
Ordering Tip
If you want it without sugar too, say 'Şəkərsiz qara qəhvə'.
Turkish Coffee vs. Black Coffee
If you just say 'qəhvə' in a traditional place, they might bring you Turkish coffee. Specify 'Americano' if you want a large cup.
