My Little Espresso Cup Obsession


Hey r/espresso!
I just wanted to share a little love for the unsung heroes of our coffee routines: the espresso cup.

For me, the vessel is just as important as the shot itself. There's something truly special about the weight, the feel, the lip, and the design of a perfect little cup that elevates that 30-second moment of espresso bliss. It’s a tiny piece of art that holds liquid gold! ✨
I've developed a bit of an obsession over the years, and I keep adding new finds whenever I travel or spot a unique ceramicist. Thess pictures are just a small fraction of my collection.

Show me yours!

    Good god man where do you keep them all? Are there 2 or 4 of each, or just singles?

    Very Nice collection. I too have an espresso cup/cappuccino collection, just currently awaiting a cabinet to display them. Nice to see another person with the same obsession.

    The flower one with the checkered background is so beautiful. It’ll now be my life goal to find one like that.

    Well, I’m impressed. They are lovely. Seriously. What a great idea to collect as you travel, and add to your collection when inspired. Thank you for sharing these photos. Rgds from Canada.
