Egypt's Best 5 2olla Brands

The humble 2olla dates back literally millenniums—like back to the time of the Pharaohs actually. This authentic Egyptian vessel was the first form of natural refrigeration for cooling and storing water. Now, these local Egyptian brands have revamped and reimagined the traditional olla, harnessing the natural cooling effects but with a cute, modern flair.
