Buy Arabic coffee and gahwa in Dubai and across the UAE — lightly roasted qahwa blends with cardamom and saffron, in beans or ready-ground, delivered in 2–4 days. Arabic coffee is the heart of Emirati hospitality, and PERCUP brings you specialty-grade gahwa made for the majlis.
Arabic coffee — known as gahwa or qahwa — is a lightly roasted coffee traditionally brewed with cardamom and often saffron, cloves or rose. Pale gold to amber in the cup, it is aromatic and spiced rather than dark and bitter. Serving gahwa from a dallah into small finjan cups, alongside dates, is a cornerstone of Gulf hospitality and is recognised by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage.
“Gahwa” and “qahwa” are two spellings of the same Arabic word for coffee — you will see both across the UAE. Both refer to the traditional lightly roasted, cardamom-spiced brew.
Simmer finely ground, lightly roasted coffee with water and cardamom in a dallah for a few minutes, then serve unsweetened in small cups with dates on the side. It is traditionally poured for guests right to left, and a gentle shake of the cup tells the host you have had enough. Perfect for Ramadan, Eid and everyday Emirati hospitality — see our Ramadan gifting and gift sets.
