☕ **Did You Know? In Qatar… A Coffee Cup Can Speak!**
In a Qatari Majlis, coffee has its own language — understood without saying a word:
☕ **Coffee is served with the right hand** as part of traditional hospitality etiquette.
🤝 **The guest also receives the cup with the right hand.**
🔄 After drinking, the cup is refilled as long as the guest continues to offer it back.
👋 **Gently shaking the cup** when returning it means: *“I’ve had enough, thank you.”*
☕ If the guest does not shake the cup, it usually means they would like **another serving**.
🏠 Serving Arabic coffee is an important symbol of **generosity, hospitality, and respect** in Qatari and Gulf Majlis culture.
🌿 Qatari and Gulf coffee is traditionally flavored with **cardamom**, with other aromatic ingredients sometimes added depending on the family’s recipe.
🇶🇦☕ **A small cup… with a whole language of hospitality and respect.**
