The traditional Moroccan market is the largest and busiest in the world. There is nothing you won't find there and whether you are buying, selling or bartering everyone is full of anticipation looking for the next bidding war. Dancers in bright costumes snake their way through the crowds while keeping time with bongo beats and flutes... musical sounds that seem to come from everywhere. Acrobats perform in one area, while patrons sit quietly and listen to storytellers in another. Walking into stall after stall, your visual sense is slightly over powered by the auditory input from the blaring music. The smell of medicinal herbs and spices waif through the air and the aroma never ceases keeping your attention. Your mind is on sensory overload trying to decipher all that you see, hear, and smell in this Middle Eastern market.
There are colors here like you have never seen before, vibrant, deep, rich and so many of them. You could lose yourself for hours here in the Marrakesh market and never see half of what is here for you. Each stall is wall-to-wall, floor to ceiling, full of the seller's goods, sometimes leaving only standing room for the seller himself.
By nightfall, this same market seems to have morphed into a huge outdoor restaurant. The people of Marrakesh don't seem to need sleep as these booths have already been open for 12 hours and there is no sign of them shutting down now. Charmers have taken home their snakes, and clothing has been folded and set aside for another day. The stalls, under the expansive canopy, are now dimly lit by lanterns and serve bowls of family secret recipes, while locals and guests dance to the Gnawa music. Gnawa is a combination of sub-Saharan and Arabic religious song and dance and has only a few phrases that are repeated throughout the song. This one song can last 20 minutes to several hours while the singer's dance around using large heavy iron castanets known as qraqab's. The music that is played is a beautiful spiritual combination of prayer and celebration of life.
Coffee DeCafe’s Marrakesh blend possesses the essence of the Marrakesh Market. It starts with high quality Arabica beans that have been roasted dark to a velvety standard. Decaf Marrakesh blend is a hearty cup with complex flavors and a surprising spicy after taste that is reminiscent of the spices sold in the market. It is with the Marrakesh spirit that that this blend was created to help you...celebrate life.
A heat sealed valve bag will ensure the freshness of your Marrakesh blend coffee. Your coffee will be freshly roasted the same day it ships. Enjoy!
