Our Story

An academic discipline, an honest framework.

Academy Coffee is a boutique roastery in Üsküdar, Istanbul. We are rebuilding Turkish coffee through an academic discipline; alongside, we roast filter coffees and espresso blends. We carry a centuries-old tradition into a measurable, traceable, and honest framework.

Academy Coffee, Üsküdar

01 — Origin

A boutique roastery in Üsküdar. Turkish coffee at the heart.

Üsküdar has been a place that drinks, brews, and shares coffee for centuries. Academy Coffee settles here as a boutique roastery; what comes out when tradition meets care, we will see together.

Turkish coffee sits at the heart of our brand identity. While specialty competitors lead with filter and espresso, we put the question of carrying centuries of tradition into an academic framework at the front. Every batch small, every batch deliberate, every batch fresh.

02 — Method

An invitation, not a promise.

Our roast profile is not a fixed recipe. Every bean has its own character: altitude, processing method, harvest season, even the day's humidity shifts the outcome. We read those variables and design the roast accordingly.

Our classes are not curricula. They are intimate, small-group sittings of tasting and discovery: a different profile, a different origin, a different brew method each time. The discovery is yours; we set the frame.

A batch's journey

01

Green bean selection

We taste samples from the supplier and choose a batch. The batch's character decides which profile emerges; there is no fixed recipe.

Monthly

02

Roast profile

A custom curve for each batch. The roaster stands beside it, watching the temperature shift and the sound; experience makes the call, not minutes.

12–15 min

03

First crack

The bean cracks as it shifts thermally. After that threshold, seconds matter more than minutes; we want to leave it at the right point.

04

Resting

A minimum of 48 hours after the roast. The taste settles, then the pack is sealed. The roast date is printed on the bag; you read it.

48 hr min

03 — Discipline

The brand speaks, the person does not.

We share where every coffee comes from and what profile it was roasted to. Each batch was roasted within the last 30 days; the roast date is printed on the bag, so you can decide when to brew and how that timing will shape the cup.

Academy Coffee is a brand, not a person. Those who want to know who we are come to Üsküdar and meet us. The brand stands independent of its founder, so the system's consistency is preserved as it grows.

"Less, but right. An invitation, not a promise. Experience, not certification. The brand speaks, the person does not."
