The Coffee Ceremony

On Sunday, March 22, in the rural village of Sire, I had the pleasure of watching the intricate steps of a coffee ceremony. I'll let the pictures tell the story...

Raw beans prepared for roasting

Roasting the beans

What a wonderful aroma!

Grinding/Pounding the beans

Brewing by pouring out a cup from the bottom of the pot and pouring it back into the top

Sugar...lots of sugar!

The richest, strongest coffee I've ever had!
