In these pots there are aroma extracts from different kinds of coffee and tea from NIKA.
You can open the pots and smell them.
Also you can use this as a menu card, and choose which coffee and tea you would like to drink.
If your nose looses the coordination, you can smell your own skin so that your nose is completely fresh again.

instructie
In de verschillende potjes is er het aroma-extract van de soorten koffie en thee van NIKA.
Je kunt de potjes openen en eraan ruiken.
Je kunt het als menukaart gebruiken en kiezen wat je wilt drinken.
Als je neus verzadigd is moet je even aan je eigen arm ruiken zodat je weer een uitgangspunt hebt.
NIKA is a coffee and tea shop and at the same time a pleasant cafe where you can even have a lunch. It's located in the mixed area in the North part of Rotterdam (Benthuizerstraat / Zaagmolenstraat). The owner is Turkish/Kurdish and the customer has a nice mixture, reflecting the area and the character of the shop.
There are simply so many choice of coffee and tea from all over the world and they are all delicious. I wanted to make more 'instinctive menu card' for the customer than just the menu card written with the plain text like "a coffee with bitter taste and strong aroma..." or "Japanese green tea with the roasted rice..." etc.
The distillation technique has been used for this project in order to extract the aroma of coffee and tea.
