Armudu or Armudu stəkan (Armudu glass), sometimes called Boğmalı is a kind of drinking glass used for black tea in Azerbaijan. ==Introduction== Azerbaijani tea is usually served first when host receives guests. Tea serving and drinking is important component of Azerbaijani culture. Armudu which translates as "in the shape of a pear" or Boğmalı, which translates "narrow", as it is also called, remind a shape of a pear and is sometimes associated with a figure of a hostess in Azerbaijani culture. The Armudu is made from variety of materials: glass, porcelain, faience, silver. Besides its aesthetic qualities, the Armudu also has thermophysical advantages. The narrower middle portion of the glass does not allow the hot liquid in the bottom of the glass to flow upwards but returns the warm flow to the bottom. This allows the tea to remain hot until it is consumed in full.〔 〕 The Armudu tea glasses are often 100 grams in weight. The tea is poured into the glass but not up to the top. Usually a gap of 1–2 cm which is called "dodağ yeri" ("place for lips" in Azerbaijani) in the folk, is left for the consumer's lips for comfortable drinking.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Armudu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
