About this tour
Rich and highly caffeinated, Turkish coffee is enjoyed in many countries around the world. It’s unfiltered, so it has a higher concentration of caffeine and other beneficial compounds that may provide several health benefits.
Turkish coffee is a rich, thick, and delightful drink to be enjoyed slowly with good company. It is brewed in a copper coffee pot called a cezve (jez-VEY), made with powder-like ground coffee, and sweetened to the drinker’s taste. Creating the perfect cup of Turkish coffee is a splendid way to show off your coffee-making skills. Thanks to this tour that also includes a coffee-making class, you’ll discover traditional techniques to make a perfect cup of Turkish coffee. Alongside your professional guide, enjoy learning the craft of coffee production at a shop, plus sit in a delicious coffee at a few local establishments.
