Just received the NOLA Style Pack and some extra sleeves & I’m not sure how I feel about the tumbler. Everyone raves about it, but I just don’t know. I guess it’s rather interesting. This is my first one & probably my last unless there’s a color that just wows me. I’ll give it & the pod a go in the morning. Fingers crossed that it tastes delicious like the actual Blue Bottle blend.

I loved the color! However, I also don’t love that they sweat. Giving mine away to friends to get the number of cups in the house down to manageable 😅
I was going to get it because i thought it was glass. Once i saw it was plastic i was like Meh
I got the pistachio tumbler since I had a lot of built up credit and I’ve been wanting a larger vessel for iced coffee instead of using a beer glass 😂
I was pleased with mine, it holds the perfect amount for me and goes through the dishwasher fine. No condensation on the outside for me and it’s comfortable to hold.
I do love the blue colour so I might have to scour eBay for one since I don’t use Vertuo and it isn’t sold separately.
I love the color. But I hate plastic. If it was glass I would buy it immediately
ill buy the cup off you if selling!
I purchased the pistachio iced coffee bundle and the green one was in there. I was disappointed because it was plastic. Honestly, I’ve tried it several times to make ice coffee and I DO NOT like the cup. I used it for iced water now.
Cons:
straw breaks easily and they don’t sell replacement straws. Plastic, not glass. Does not fit in my car cup holder
Pros:
Mint colour is cute. Nice design aesthetic. Fits the perfect amount of liquid for iced coffees and iced matchas (but since my straw broke, I can’t use the cup anymore)
Definitely give us an update in the morning!
I like it but I was disappointed it wasn’t glass and it doesn’t fit in my cup holder. It’s fine for around the house since I’ve been looking for something to better hold iced drinks without condensation.
Let me buy this from you, I’d send you funds asap! I love this color and this is my absolute favorite bottle.
I got the Samra Origins color variant and love the extra stripe design in yellow on it!
seems like a lot of cup for 80 ml of coffee.
Unrelated but can you share where you got your watch band?
It reminds me too much of a kids sippy cup.
It’s a cute cup but the shape isn’t convenient for me. It doesn’t fit in a car cupholder so what’s the point of making it a to go cup?
Only thing I’m wondering… Does it fit in a typical car drink holder? If not, I do not see the point.
Update….
Cup is mid, but I do like the straw cover😂 The color is also pretty sitting next to my Key Lime Yeti💚
The NOLA pod is pretty good in a “latte”, although I wish it was available for the OL so I could get a closer to proper espresso. I brewed the pod over a little local whipped honey & coconut sugar, stirred, then added it to a shaker with homemade almond milk & cinnamon.
I also tried it black & it wasn’t bad but I figured I’d order the Blue Bottle NOLA beans & chicory to brew myself for black coffee, as I believe that would taste much better.
I wasn’t a fan of mine and gave it away. I don’t like the domed top, it doesn’t fit well in my hand, and above all it isn’t even glass. I think this is the only thing I’ve purchased from Nespresso that I didn’t end up liking.
I love that colour! I only see the green and orange in Canada.
I was so excited to get one when I went to the store last weekend. But saw they were cheap plastic and definitely noped out of that purchase.
I love that color! So vibrant. I just bought the mint tumbler though and haven’t used it very much. I hope they make ice molds in this color!
I bought it BECAUSE it is plastic. I can now drink iced coffee by the pool. Can’t bring glass to the pool
I love my tumbler. My toddler stole my orange one from last year so I got the aqua one when it popped up this year. I wish I would have waited for the pistachio one but I didn’t even know it existed then.
How did you get this!!
Mine came with my nespresso plus machine, haven’t used it. I am Yeti user, will give it a try soon though. I was disappointed with the plastic as well.
I like mine and it surprised me because it looks like a baby bottle. But dang it’s a really good travel cup with a functional straw and straw condom so you don’t spill.
Can someone answer if the cups sweat a lot with iced coffee in them?
I got the mint colored one and it’s meh. I think I’ve used it maybe twice. It’s too big imo. And hard to clean.
i recently got the cup finally because I take public transit to work and they only allow drinks in spill proof containers! this is one of the only iced cups i ever found that was really spill proof
As a teacher for kids that tend to throw things I love the plastic! 😂
The travel mug is great but the only problem is that it doesn’t fit in a car cup holder
