Join this enchanting Turkish coffee experience in London, a welcoming place where Ottoman tradition meets the delicate allure of roses. This unique activity invites you to learn about a timeless ritual as you savour three exquisite coffees: traditional, cardamom-spiced, and rose-infused.
The workshop begins with a welcoming ritual of incense and chilled rose sherbet to awaken your senses. You will explore the rich cultural history of Turkish coffee before being guided through a tasting of each coffee variety. Your tasting will be complemented by an array of thoughtfully paired, rose-inspired treats:
  • Silky muhallebi (milk pudding) with rose petals
  • Rose and cardamom kurabiye
  • Turkish delights with rose, pomegranate, and mastic flavour
This class is a sensory session. You can sip, savour, and share your impressions in a relaxed and enchanting atmosphere.
