The Turkish Coffee Experience at Home - Cook and Taste
Overview
What makes Turkish coffee special? It is the culture of it. Just like British have their tea sessions, we have our Turkish coffee session.
Although there are a lot to be said about Turkish coffee, we want to keep it for the experience, no spoilers..
We will welcome you at our home to teach your Turkish coffee, from its history and culture to its variety and how it is an everyday thing in our culture. We will teach you how to cook Turkish coffee, just like our mothers cooked for their guests for years.
We will be cooking and tasting at least 3 Turkish Coffee types. Menengiç, Dibek, Mırra, Sütlü Türk kahvesi are some of the Turkish Coffee types.
During the experience, you will also learn about crazy interesting Turkish coffee customes in our history. These stories will make you feel like you are a part of the culture as well, and that will be our biggest goal for the experience.
So, come, join us at our home for a Turkish Coffee session. But come as a guest, leave as a friend!

What To Expect
We can all go to the cafes in the town and easily order a Turkish Coffee. But, does it come with a story?
We want to bring something new to the table. We want to invite you to our home not only to tell the story of Turkish coffee, but to make you live the story of it. We want to show you how it is a daily life thing for our at home culture, and we want to do this by inviting you to our home.
Firstly, we will have you over at our home in central Istanbul. While we try to introduce you to our home culture, we will also be describing you the textures of different Turkish Coffees. After that, we will start cooking the coffee home style way, on a regular stove at a home.
Once we cook some of the different types, we will drink the variety of Turkish coffees with some Turkish delights or chocalates, just as we Turkish people do.
So, come, join us for a home style Turkish Coffee session and experience local home athmosphere at its best.
