jebena
A jebena is a traditional Ethiopian coffee pot used for brewing coffee. It is typically made from clay or ceramic and features a long neck and a spout. The design allows for the coffee to be poured easily while keeping the grounds in the pot. The jebena is an essential part of the Ethiopian coffee ceremony, which is a significant cultural ritual.
During the coffee ceremony, green coffee beans are roasted in a pan, then ground and brewed in the jebena. The coffee is often served with sugar and sometimes accompanied by snacks. This ceremony emphasizes hospitality and community, making the jebena a symbol of Ethiopian culture and social life.
