Cezve - a vessel for making coffee.
It originated in the fifteenth century, and was the result of the Turkish Sultan’s understandable passion for coffee.
Initially, coffee was prepared in copper or clay pots, but these were not suitable utensils; the drink often boiled, losing its aroma. Then they tried to cook it in jugs similar to water jugs, only smaller in size. This worked better, but the metal handle became very hot, burning the hands of the cook. The handle was lengthened, made wooden, and at the same time the jug was equipped with a new spout coming from the top of the vessel.
