Jordanian Coffee Cups

Jordanian coffee culture is rooted in Bedouin hospitality — where offering a guest coffee is a sacred duty and refusing it is unthinkable. Our cups honor that tradition of generosity and warmth.

Coffee Traditions

In Jordan, coffee is served as the first act of hospitality, whether in a Bedouin tent in Wadi Rum or an Amman apartment. Jordanian gahwa is light-roasted with heavy cardamom, similar to Gulf-style coffee. At formal occasions and after meals like mansaf, coffee service follows specific protocols — the host pours standing, serving from right to left.

The Cup Style

Jordanian coffee cups follow the classic finjan style — small, handleless, and elegant. Plain white or gold-accented cups are most common. Our Classic 80ml cups match the traditional Jordanian size perfectly.
