Brand Tone

Passionate, Artisanal/Craft-focused, Knowledgeable/Expert, Aspirational/Cultural, Authentic/Transparent (aspired), Modern, Hip, and Aesthetically-aware

Brand Values

• •Quality: A clear emphasis on "high quality coffees," "best taste," and "best possible way" of presenting coffee.
• •Craftsmanship: Dedication to the art and science of coffee roasting and brewing.
• •Culture: Belief in coffee as a unifying cultural element.
• •Passion: The driving force behind the brand's creation and operations.
• •Exploration/Innovation (in roasting): Constantly trying "different roasting techniques" and "new experiments."
• •Social Responsibility (aspirational): Future aim to engage in "social projects" and ensure "fair conditions" for producers.

Best Practices

• •Emphasize Passion and Craft: Always use language that reflects genuine enthusiasm and dedication to the art of coffee. Words like "passion," "craft," "artisan," "meticulous," and "discover" can reinforce this.
• •Educate and Share Knowledge: True to the "Sapiens" name, incorporate educational snippets about coffee origins, roasting processes, or brewing tips. This positions the brand as an expert and a guide.
• •Tell Stories: Share the stories behind the beans, the roasting experiments, or the cultural aspects of coffee. This adds depth and connects with customers on an emotional level.
• •Be Visually Coherent: Ensure that all visual content (social media, website, in-store) aligns with the artisanal, quality-focused, and aesthetically aware tone. High-quality, appealing imagery is key.
• •Acknowledge and Address Feedback (if applicable): While maintaining a confident tone, be open to customer perceptions. If addressing issues like those mentioned in some reviews, do so in a way that reinforces the commitment to quality and the ongoing pursuit of the "best taste." This shows authenticity and a dedication to improvement.

Social Perception

Perceived by many as a go-to place for quality, hand-roasted coffee in Istanbul, with a "hipster" and artisanal appeal. Appreciated for its dedication to the craft. Mixed/Polarizing (among some): Some customers have expressed disappointment, feeling the coffee didn't meet "specialty" expectations or was overpriced, indicating a potential gap between brand promise and customer experience for a segment of their audience. Knowledgeable Coffee Destination: Seen as a place for those who appreciate the nuances of coffee, given their in-house roasting and focus on brewing methods.
