The tradition of telling someone’s fortune from a coffee cup is widespread and especially common in the Turkish coffee tradition. A while back when I was still working for a coffee company, I used to amuse myself by studying the empty coffee cups of people. The traces that the crema leaves on the sides as you drink; not to mention the bottom of the cup full of shades of brown with mysterious shapes waiting to be interpreted.

One day, there was a surprise waiting for me in my cup. After a few sips I noticed a very unusual shape on the side of the cup. Believe it or not!
