Produced in Rize Province on the eastern Black Sea coast of Turkey which has a mild climate with high precipitation and fertile soil, when brewed it is mahogany in color. In addition to being consumed at home, it is served in Turkish caf\u00E9s by a \u00E7ayc\u0131 (tea-waiter), in small, narrow-waisted glasses. It can be taken strong (\"demli\" dark) or weak (\"a\u00E7\u0131k\" light), and is traditionally accompanied by two or three lumps of beet sugar."@en .
