What to expect

Immerse yourself in the heart of Istanbul, you'll find that coffee is more than just a beverage - it's a cornerstone of Turkish culture. As you sip on a cup of richly flavoured coffee, you'll be exploring the soul of this bustling city. This Turkish coffee making workshop offers an immersive two-hour experience where you can savour each moment as you watch the world go by. Nestled in a tranquil corner of busy Istanbul, the aroma of freshly ground coffee beans mingles with tales of age-old traditions.

Bilingual instructors will guide you through the process of making coffee in a traditional cezve pot. You'll grind premium coffee beans by hand, releasing the distinct flavours within each type. During a well-deserved coffee break, you'll partake in a special fortune-telling activity, learning to predict the future using your coffee cup, just as the locals do. This isn’t merely about coffee; it’s about connecting with a tradition that has captivated people for generations.

As the workshop concludes, you'll receive a special gift - a traditional cezve, freshly ground coffee, and a handmade ceramic cup, all symbols of the warmth and hospitality inherent in Turkish culture. But this experience goes beyond brewing and tasting coffee. You'll also delve into a presentation about coffee's historical significance and cultural importance in Turkey. You'll sample three types of traditional Turkish Coffee, each paired with Turkish delight. This is your chance to discover the ancient tradition of Turkish coffee making, grind your own beans, and join a conversation over a cup like a true Istanbul resident.
