We're beyond excited to introduce you to our newest partner, Chef Tarik Abdullah (aka Cooka T) and his new blend, Kaffe Baharat, a coffee-infused concoction inspired by Seattle's vibrant food scene and Tarik's love for Middle Eastern flavors.

Based in the heart of Seattle, Chef Tarik is well-known for his Lumen Field food stand, Cooka T's Kitchen (offering the "best vegan options in Lumen Field" by Eater Seattle), as well as Feed the People, a community-driven initiative focusing on food and youth development programs.

Now after years of requests, Tarik has crafted a coffee-infused blend in collaboration with Seattle's own Boon Boona Coffee.

This blend is perfect for lamb meatballs, grilling steak, or as a tasty companion for sheet pan veggies.

Fun Fact: Our blend has a playful twist on the English pronunciation and the Arabic word for coffee! In Arabic, it's 'القهوة' (pronounced as 'al-qahwa'). On another note, 'Baharat' is the Arabic term for 'spices' in English.
