I love these espresso cups. I especially love that the double glass keeps the coffee warm much longer than regular cups. Try as I might to get 5 uninterrupted minutes a day, things happen and sometimes the poor espresso sits all alone for several minutes. I really hate lukewarm espresso, to me, there is something very unfair about having to drink coffee after it has totally cooled down. These cups are saving my sanity and my belief that life can be great.
