Omani people pay attention to multi-boutique coffee culture when drinking coffee.

Oman has a long history and splendid culture. Its residents pay attention to etiquette, dealing with people, welcome to and from all have a fixed set, from drinking coffee and other trivial things can be seen.

The Omani call coffee "Kahwa" and like to add spices such as cardamom to the coffee. Their coffee is thick black and contains a bitter taste similar to that of traditional Chinese medicine, which is different from the mellow coffee in the West.

Soon after the reporter arrived in Muscat, he was once invited to be a guest by the enthusiastic and unrestrained Omani. After a big cake barbecue, the heart is more than enough and the belly is broken. Looking at the table full of all kinds of food, there is nothing I can do. It happens that the Omani still have the custom of inviting guests to have coffee when the hospitality is coming to an end. If the guest does not drink, it will usually cause the host's misunderstanding and think that you have what you think of his hospitality.

So the reporter took the hot coffee in the repeated persuasion of the host, and although he was embarrassed, he had to drink it reluctantly. When he finally finished the cup, the waiter standing on the side with the kettle said that it was too late to pour another cup for the reporter. "that's enough, thank you!" The reporter hastened to stop it, but the waiter looked at the reporter with a puzzled face and asked, "that's enough?" Are you sure you don't want it? " Seeing the reporter nodded heavily, the waiter asked, "then why don't you shake the cup?" "shake the cup?" The reporter was confused and the second monk-in-law was confused.

The owner, who witnessed all this, smiled and bent down, and he said, "it seems that you don't know the rules of the Omani people for drinking coffee. After drinking, the waiter doesn't ask you if you want it, like in other countries, but stares at your hand. If you don't want to drink any more, raise the cup in hand, shake it in the air in front of the waiter, and the waiter won't add it to you when he sees it." If you are indifferent and throw away the empty cup, he will keep filling it for you. Also, if you only say to him,'No, thank you', he will probably understand that you are being polite and will usually insist on adding it to you. Remember, in Oman, only by shaking the cup does it mean that you have really had enough and don't want any more! "

I see! The reporter paid attention to the observation in the subsequent activities, and sure enough, the Omani people naturally shook their cups in the air after drinking one or two cups of coffee, which seemed to be the unique scenery of the Omani people, from the members of the royal family to the common people.

Omani love coffee, the streets are full of coffee shops, they have their own way of grinding, blending and blending coffee. Huge sculptures of teapots and coffee pots are erected in the street gardens or squares of large and small cities of Oman, reflecting the social style of hospitality in Oman. It can be said that the curling taste of coffee is filled with the rich cultural flavor of Oman; between the shaking of the cup, the unique cultural traditions of the Omani are fully evident.
