Guided by a Turkish coffee expert, you’ll explore the deep cultural roots of this ritual—recognized by UNESCO for its heritage—and the stories that surround every cup. You’ll also indulge in a curated tasting of Turkish delights, from classic rose to regional flavors, perfectly paired with your rich, aromatic coffee. Whether you’re a local or visiting the island, this is a unique opportunity to slow down, connect, and share a timeless tradition in the warmth of a laid-back, island setting. Perfect for solo explorers, curious couples, or groups seeking a meaningful, flavorful activity—no prior experience needed, just your curiosity!
