    This is an incredible experience for all your senses! I loved learning about the history of coffee, Turkish traditions and the skill of making Turkish coffee from our amazing teacher Nargis! She made the workshop super fun and engaging.

    This was such a great workshop. Nargis had such a warm, lovely energy and explained the history of Turkish coffee really well. The time went by so quickly, we really enjoyed ourselves. The fortunes at the end were so cool as well!

    Enes was our host for this amazing experience. I never realized the arm work out required to grind the coffee beans and the idea that women would do this 10-15 times when a proposal happens gives you new respect for them. The event was very private with just me and one other person (my friend). At the end you walk away with new knowledge that I've already put to use by making coffee with the set that is a gift when you depart. 10/10 if I even come back with friends I would do this again!
