Bir Fincan Hakikat: Sufizm, Kahve ve Arayışın Yolculuğu | Pınar Demir | TEDxHacettepeUniversity
Hakikat, çoğu zaman gözle görülenin ötesindedir; sesin sustuğu, zihnin durulduğu yerde kendini hissettirir. Kendini gerçekleştirmek ise dış dünyaya değil, içe doğru yapılan bir yolculuktur. İnsan, ne zaman başkalarının beklentilerinden sıyrılıp kendi sesini duymaya başlarsa, işte o zaman gerçek anlamda kendisi olmaya yaklaşır. Tıpkı kahve gibi hakikat de aceleyle değil, sabırla demlenir. Her durumda biraz daha derinleşir, sadeleşir. Sonunda anlarsın: Aradığın cevaplar dışarıda değil çoktandır senin içinde olandır. Pınar Demir insanın hakikatini bulma yolculuğunu kahve ile harmanlayıp bize sunuyor. Pınar Demir, 2006 yılından bu yana kahve sektöründe aktif olarak yer alan, Türkiye'nin önde gelen kahve uzmanlarından biridir. Kahveye olan ilgisi otelcilik sektöründe çalışırken başladı ve 2006 yılında Türkiye'nin ilk barista şampiyonasında MasterBarista unvanını kazandı. Hollanda'da Douwe Egberts'te kahve üretimi üzerine eğitim aldıktan sonra, Kahve Dünyası'nda ürün geliştirme ve operasyon yönetimi gibi alanlarda önemli roller üstlendi. Daha sonra kendi şirketi Cascara Danışmanlık'ı kurarak kahve sektöründe marka danışmanlığı, barista eğitimi ve ürün geliştirme gibi hizmetler sunmaya başladı. 2014 yılından itibaren Mutfak Sanatları Akademisi'nde barista eğitmeni olarak görev yapmaktadır. Kahve dünyasında birçok markanın yaratılmasında imzası bulunan Demir, bugün hem danışman hem eğitmen olarak sektöre katkı sağlamaya devam etmektedir.
