Coffee is national drink of Turkey that has a long historical tradition. Its story began in Egypt, where the Ottomans brought the first coffee beans to Istanbul in 1519. The first coffee shops were open some 30 years later in Eminonu district. There were prohibition decrees by some Ottoman Sultans. Our tour begins with “Coffee Route” – where we will have coffee tasting in these historical venues. Tiny streets, historical walkways, intriguing old bazaars, Ottoman coffee storages.
