A daily ritual

Brewed with the scarcest ingredient: time

Specialty Cartel Coffee is crafted with a commodity rarer than most exotic beans: time. We believe in the art of slow – we take our time to make it and ask you to take at least twice as long drinking it. The true specialty of Cartel Coffee is in the time we take to roast it carefully, with the story of its origin unfurling with every drop. Because, we believe, like life, coffee should be sipped and savoured.

Carefully stored. Freshly roasted. Grounds for the finest coffee

 There’s nothing quite like the rich, enchanting aroma of freshly roasted coffee. Except tasting it, that is. Our secret to the perfect cup: unlike some of the large coffee roasters, Cartel Specialty Coffee is roasted fresh in Abu Dhabi. And fresh is best. Batches are kept small with good intention – a bigger, more robust flavour. But don’t take our word for it. Let your taste buds be the judge.

Roasted locally, respected internationally

While our expert baristas use nine bars of pressure in brewing espresso, the pressure they apply in pursuing the perfect cup is all their own. Achieving perfectly roasted, ground, brewed, extracted, and steamed coffee consistently is no mean feat, even with the finest equipment. We’re home to the official World No. 26 Barista. So when it comes to the finest coffee, you could say Cartel is raising the bar. 

A place to drink life in

We believe in elevating the humble cup of coffee to something far more. At Cartel, coffee is a sacred, personal ritual that helps you slow from the daily grind and enjoy one of ours. Our cafés are places of quiet respite where you can get away from it all, to uncover what really matters. To bring focus to life. That’s why our spaces are designed not around many, but the individual. Because your ritual is personal. Here’s to drinking life in, one sip at a time.
