Shaheen's Coffee Cairo

My favorite coffee store

""Shaheen’s Coffee" in Cairo is the perfect place for all coffee enthusiasts! I come here because blends are very important for me..."

For all caffeine enthusiasts in Cairo, bon shaheen coffee store is the place for a quick coffee fix or to shop for my favorite roast.

I’m very loyal to my coffee supplier, and Shaheen has been my source for a delicious and balanced dark roast for many years, I say balanced because I’m very particular about my coffee as I like my coffee black with no sugar and so, the blend is very important to me and the quality of the coffee is essential, the aroma of shaheen coffee is enough to tell me that this is coffee of the highest quality, you could not pass in the same street as their store and not smell their strong aroma of delicious coffee.

shaheen also offers many other varieties of coffee, when I like to change up my usual order of dark roast coffee I get some of their green (Arabian) coffee instead. And if you’re unsure about how to prepare the coffee, then don’t worry, because they provide you with instructions on how to prepare the perfect cup of coffee depending on the type of the coffee and the methods of brewing.
