EST. 1951 Authentic Damascene coffee
A journey from the heart of Damascus
Since 1951 we have carried the craft of Damascene coffee, and poured it into every cup.
Story · inside the roastery
The beginning
A small shop in old Damascus, a roaster turning slowly on its stone, and a great love of coffee.
From bean to cup
01of five stages
Choosing the beans
We choose the finest beans from the world's best farms, bean by bean — the way a Damascene chooses for a guest.
Our Damascene majlis
More than coffee…
a story, and a welcome
In Damascus, coffee is never just a drink. It is a daily rite, a story that gathers those you love. A cup passed round the room, and cardamom in the air before the welcome.
“Drink your cup, then tell us what's happened since.”
