Traditional hot beverage
Contexto cultural
Tea is never served without bread (non). If you are offered 'issiq choy', expect a piece of 'lepyoshka' to accompany it. In the Fergana region, green tea (ko'k choy) is almost exclusively preferred, even in the dead of winter. In the capital, black tea (qora choy) with lemon and sugar is more common than in the rural provinces. The Choyxona is traditionally a male-dominated space where 'issiq choy' is served alongside 'palov' (pilaf).
The Right Hand Rule
Always accept and give the 'piyola' of 'issiq choy' with your right hand. Using the left hand is considered impolite.
The Three Pours
If you are the host, remember to pour the tea back into the pot three times. This shows you know the culture.
