    We enjoyed the Turkish coffee making workshop! Our host was very friendly and helpful in teaching us the process, and it was a fun 2 hours. The activity takes place on the Asian side of Istanbul, not at the meeting point; it was really helpful that someone met us at the meeting point and showed us the way to the workshop via the metro (and paid the fare)… we had plenty of time, but be aware that you need to arrive 30 minutes earlier than the start time if you’re on the European side in order to travel to the workshop location.

    It was a great experience attending this workshop. Kübra, who gave the Turkish coffee demonstration, was extremely knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and was very helpful and informative. The workshop was not only about Turkish coffee; she also shared fascinating insights into Ottoman life, culture, history, and the geography of Türkiye. The entire experience was enjoyable, engaging, and educational. I highly recommend this workshop—you will not regret it. As an added bonus, the workshop takes place in Üsküdar, which is a wonderful area to explore, with plenty of great cafés, desserts, and local food options. Come and see it for yourself!

    How long does the Turkish coffee and fortune telling workshop take?

    The session runs about ninety minutes from sit-down to leaving. Brewing takes around twenty, drinking and resting fifteen, and the cup reading another twenty. The rest is open time for second cups, photos, and questions.

    What is included in the Turkish coffee and fortune telling workshop?

    You brew Turkish coffee on a cezve with us, drink it slowly, then we read the grounds. The price covers brewing materials, lokum and water, the guide for the full session, and a printed note of the reading.

    Can I reschedule my workshop?

    Yes. Send a message via the contact page at least 48 hours before your session. We move you based on availability. Inside 48 hours, the move is harder; we still try if a seat opens up. There is no fee for a standard reschedule.

    Experience

    Turkish coffee roots run deep within society, hence form a culture based on it. Grind some beans, brew cezve style genuine coffee then experience at least a cup every day for weeks as you explore Turkish coffee fortune telling art.

    A Turkish coffee set is a must-have before heading back home.Start through visiting one of your favorite cafes; here listen keenly to an exciting lecture that delves into historic values attached to every move regarding such beverage across different cultures worldwide.

    Invest time right now into learning how this beverage should be brewed by yourself: get finest beans which are then grounded well followed by steeping these in boiling water (with proper ratio). To make it better try using cezve for the preparation of the drink itself after that successively taste two forms of Turkish coffee so that one appreciates its multiple dimensions.

    Walking around or drinking our coffee allows us pour more cups, as well as let you know about coffee grounds fortune-telling. At last gather your own equipment for making Turkish coffee that includes cezve (pot), ground coffee beans, traditional Turkish coffee cup plus saucer because it would enable participants replicate this procedure either at their homes alone or together with friends once our session ends: venture out into the streets alone and see what you can about this city.

    we absolutely loved it, so interesting and educational, I would recommend this to any coffee lover. my only note, we would have appreciated some help getting back to the meeting point afterwards or maybe even just a forewarning that we would be getting a guide to the workshop but would have to make our own way back to the European side, in the end it wasn't too difficult but as I mentioned; a little forewarning would have been appreciated 😊 other than that an absolutely lovely experience and such great value, I want to do all their workshops now!

    We learned a los about the history of turkish Coffee making and its process. Our guide Tanner was so kind and patient, as my Mother doesn't speak English and he waited for me to translate for her so she was not left out. The only thing is that we were expecting bigger bags of Coffee in our gift pack, they were very little. The rest was perfect.
