Serving Arabic coffee
Kahwa is traditionally poured from a dallah into small cups, filled only part way and topped up as guests finish. Dates are the classic accompaniment.
For Ramadan and Eid
A set of kahwa cups is a lovely gift to bring when visiting family during Ramadan and Eid, and the box keeps the cups safe.
Making a good pot of tea
Warm the pot first with a little hot water, use water just off the boil for black tea and slightly cooler water for green tea, and let it brew for three to five minutes. A set like the Arabic kahwa cups turns a simple brew into a small occasion.
Hosting tea time
Lay the cups out before guests arrive, with milk, sugar and lemon on a tray, and serve something sweet alongside, such as biscuits, dates or cake. Tableware like the Arabic kahwa cups makes guests feel welcome.
Care
Wash fine tableware by hand in warm soapy water, especially pieces with gold or silver trim, and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid the microwave for anything with metallic decoration. Treated gently, tableware like the Arabic kahwa cups will keep its shine for years.
Who it is for
Tableware like the Arabic kahwa cups suits tea and coffee lovers, families who enjoy having guests and anyone who loves a traditional tea time. It also makes a memorable gift for weddings, Eid, housewarmings and birthdays.
Displaying your set
A beautiful set does not need to stay in the cupboard. Show it in a glass cabinet or on an open shelf, where the gold or silver details catch the light. Displayed this way, a set like the Arabic kahwa cups becomes part of the room.
Tea and coffee traditions
From afternoon tea in Britain to Arabic coffee and Turkish tea served to guests, sharing a hot drink is a sign of welcome in many cultures. Tableware like the Arabic kahwa cups brings that tradition to your own table.
Choosing a set
Think about how many people you usually serve, whether you prefer small cups for coffee or larger ones for tea with milk, and whether you like plain white or a bold pattern. A set like the Arabic kahwa cups answers those questions in one go.
Gift wrapping ideas
Add a packet of good coffee, a tin of loose tea or a box of dates to make a set feel extra special, and finish with a ribbon and a handwritten card. Tableware like the Arabic kahwa cups makes a gift that is used and remembered.
Small cups, big welcome
Small coffee cups encourage guests to linger for another cup, which is part of the warmth of serving kahwa. Keep the box for storage so the set stays safe between visits.
