Experience Overview

A visit to a traditional Azerbaijani tea house, or “çayxana,” is a beloved cultural ritual centered on hospitality and connection. Here, the focus is on slow enjoyment as you sip strong black tea poured from a samovar into classic pear-shaped “armudu” glasses. The experience is typically accompanied by an array of sweet jams, local pastries, and often a game of backgammon. These social hubs offer a peaceful atmosphere for conversation, whether with friends or new acquaintances. It is an essential window into the warm and welcoming spirit of Azerbaijani daily life.
