The opening of the first Starbucks store with Reserve coffee offers connoisseurs an immersive coffee experience and an opportunity to enjoy the range of specially selected, rare and exquisite coffees. Each coffee is one-of-a-kind, sourced from small coffee growing regions in Latin America, Africa and Asia/ Pacific islands. The store is also home to the unique Clover® brewing system which will be available to customers for the first time in Qatar.

It controls brewing time and temperature digitally, as even small changes can dramatically affect the outcome of the coffee’s taste.

The new store offers a stunning environment with traditional references through calligraphy and hand painted artwork applied onto herringbone timer wall, weathered copper detailed and stone cladding.
