Kurdish coffee (Kurdish: Qehweya Kurdî or Qehweya Kezwanan[1]) or menengiç coffee (Turkish: menengiç kahvesi), meaning pistachio coffee or terebinth coffee, is a traditional hot beverage in Kurdish[2][3][4] and Turkish cuisine.[5][6][7][8] It is made of ground roasted terebinth fruits (related to the pistachio) as the main ingredient, and is caffeine-free.[2][7] It is particularly popular in parts of southeastern Anatolia.[9]

History


The beverage has been produced in areas including Diyarbakır, Adıyaman, Mardin, and Batman for over a hundred years. The roasted and ground berries have been exported to Europe and around the world since the early 20th century.[4] It is also considered a traditional specialty of Gaziantep.[10]

In recent years, the processed berries in the form of an oily paste have appeared as a branded product in cans or jars.[7][additional citation(s) needed]

[ru] Курдский кофе

Курдский кофе (курд. Qehweya Kurdî или Qehweya Kezwanan)[1] — традиционный горячий напиток, распространённый на территории проживания курдов[2], в этногеографической области Курдистан. Напиток готовится из жаренных молотых плодов терпентинного дерева. Терпентинное дерево (лат. Pistácia terebínthus; фисташка терпентинная) — ближайший родственник фисташкового дерева, вместе с ним входящий в род фисташка. Считается, что курдский кофе не содержит кофеина.
