I have a thing for the muses from Greek mythology. They were the goddesses of inspiration in art: literature, history, music, dancing and tragedy. As I am in love with all these art forms, the muse means a lot to me. In a word, Müz first won my heart with its name. Müz Botanik & Kahve is an extraordinary place that transcends the concept of a botanical or plant shop. It’s a multi-purpose place including a workshop space, florist, cafe and design store in Istanbul.

Dream about picture-perfect glamorous and sophisticated interior with large wooden shelves and vintage cupboards filled with plants, a large central table and benches, a lush wall of living plants hovering above the ground, an extraordinary coffee counter covered in three-dimensional ceramic tiles. Enjoying your coffee and the stylish & glamorous ambiance they created at the same time makes you feel very good. 

Every time I am in a search for a great gift idea, I think about their original plants in perfectly designed pots. Is there any better long-lasting gift idea? At the end of the day, no one has enough plants! 

When it comes to the cafe part, their special winter menu is filled with delicious hot drinks like matcha latte and cafe miel. And also they offer a great variety of black teas from all around the world.
