Meet Mohamad Merhi, co-founder and managing partner at Cypher Urban Roastery
Staying grounded

Mehri is a stickler for details. From bean sourcing, to the exquisitely handsome packaging, everything at Cypher Urban roastery has to be done to his, very precise, standards. No surprise, then, to discover that Dubai’s coffee aficionados – not short of an exacting standard or two themselves when it comes to coffee – are flocking to him for their java fix…

I’ve always had a natural affinity for coffee. My family have loved it for generations. Some of my fondest memories are listening to my late grandfather, who’d tell us his life story while sipping on a cup of fragrant, freshly brewed Arabic coffee.

HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER

This is a city that works hard, plays hard, but, on a boiling hot day, can feel like hard work. So look at this month’s magazine as a little cooling comfort pack to see you through the summer season. Let yourself be whisked off to our favourite indoor bars and hideaways – with AC, summery feels and maybe an ice-cold drink to keep you chill. Then dream of refreshing dishes to fill your belly. You’ve never had it so cool.
