Turkish Towel 101
Turkish towels are the most versatile towels ever.
Invented in Turkey during the 17th century, Turkish towels are used in homes around the world. They are a better alternative to terry cloth towels due to their thin design and multi-functional use. Known mostly for light-weight and high absorbency, a Turkish towel aka peshtemal (pesh-te-mahl), is the perfect companion when hopping out of the shower, laying on the beach or unwinding at the park.
