Hajar Afternoon Tea

Traditional Omani coffee pots are a staple of daily life, and the drink is offered for an array of occasions. It is generally paired with small plates and sometimes even sprinkled with rosewater, as a beautiful local flourish. The intricate and idiosyncratic pots are generally made in the region, as they have been for centuries – making coffee in Oman a historic and hospitable experience not to be missed.

Culture is king in Nizwa, the local crossroads capital located at the foot of our mountain. Artistic craftsmanship and metalwork in particular are time-honoured traditions there, and studios and artisans create beautiful objects with incredible stories and deep-rooted soul; from earthenware pots to khanjar daggers and exquisite silver jewellery.
