Iranians always serve tea in glass cups. This allows the person who pours the tea to determine the consistency and color of the tea. While Iranian tea comes in a variety of subtle flavors, a good Iranian host usually asks the guests how strong or light they prefer.
Iran produces one of the highest quality tea in the world which is different in taste from other tea types such as Indian tea. Iran’s tea farms are mainly found in the north of the country, Gilan and Mazandaran provinces.
Iranians prefer their tea to be mixed with spices like cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom.
