I have never hidden my affinity for various coffer cups and mugs. I do tend to lean towards the unique mugs, though, and am always on the lookout for something new. I recently discovered a new coffee cup. It is made of porcelain and it is pure white. The thing about this cup is that it looks just like most of the cups that you get when you buy coffee from Starbucks or Coffee Bean – or any other coffee shop for that matter – except that is it plain white.
So what makes this coffee cup desirable? To be honest, the looks do not impress me at all. It is way too plain. Perhaps this plainness has a purpose – you can decorate it and stamp your brand on it. Function-wise, though, this cup beats a lot of other cups out there. It is made of porcelain, as I said, and is double walled in order to give you the insulation you need and want. It can keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for a considerable amount of time. More so, if you like drinking your coffee to go, then the lid, which is made of silicon, will keep the liquid inside and avoid nasty spills.
Dubbed “I am not a paper cup,” this thermal coffee cup is selling for $20.00! Given that I have not fallen in love with the aesthetics, I am not sure that I will part with that much for it. How about you, would you buy this cup?
