Since 1979, The UAE has been participating in the Sumo tournament by gifting the winner a huge coffee pot. The usage of the coffee pot is an indication of hospitality in the UAE, where guests are always welcomed by a fresh cup of coffee. This is the original coffee pot that was used in 1979 by UAE Ambassador Ahmed Almoqarab. It is made out of silver. A different coffee pot was used until July 2023 and the latest version was introduced in the September 2023 Sumo Final in Tokyo.
