I bought this lovely glassware set after investing in a fancy coffee machine.  They keep my coffees and lattes warm until I finish them, while the exterior of the glasses stay cool.  I like that they don't sweat and that I don't have to worry about using a coaster..  What I like the most is creating a coffee shop beverage and enjoying the presentation,. The stirrers that are also straws add to the enjoyment of using these coffee and latte pieces.  A straw to clean the stemmed spoons/straws is included to provide easy cleaning and maintenance.
