In my mind you cannot purchase a better coffee cup than Konitz, they are porcelin not ceramic which makes a differnce in taste and heat belive it or not. My wife bought me a set of these to got with our demitasse and Latte cups. I know what she paid and the price was excellent since these are top of the line quality. They are elegant in design and the white is great for any setting. They are my favorite cups to drink out of.
They are just the size for a morning cappo. I bought these in an attempt at latte art. I have given up on the art but love the cups. I agree with one previous reviewer that the stacking and storage have problems. But the cups are sturdy, functional and have a nice cafe look and feel.
The finger loops are too big making it uncomfortable to lift the cup and a nightmare to stack. cappuccino cups. After several trips to Europe, I was looking for some plain white 6 oz. My cupboards are all the more crammed because of that design. These looked like they'd fit the bill perfectly. Unfornately, that's not the case. Also, even though these were packed in about 3 boxes, "russian doll" style, one of the cups sustained a crack straight through. If I had it to do again, I would continue looking.
If you like the flavor and feeling of being in a european cafe/bistro, you will love this and other products in this cafeware line by Konitz. It is the perfect size for the perfect cappucino.
This is not the latte bowl we are used to in the U.S. This cappuccino cup and saucer set is an authentic european style of how cappucino is served.
The cups clean up in a jiffy by hand or dishwasher. The cups are made of durable porcelain and are dishwasher and microwave safe.
I've been using these cups to make double espresso and find the shape and size of the cup truly brings out the flavor with enough room for a nice dollup of foam/merengue or just plain, straight, double-shot. If your'e serious about flavor, function, durability, these cup and saucer sets do the job.
