Cups & Other Accessories
Why serve specialty coffee in everyday mugs? Invest in some well-designed and carefully crafted accessories.

You may know KRUVE as the company that changed coffee-grinding forever with their innovative coffee sieves. Now they’re crowdfunding a stylish line of glassware that enhances the coffee-drinking experience.
One cup enhances sweetness and body and the other is designed to emphasize acidity. Both highlight the aroma of your coffee and the designs are based on scientific research. Starting at US $33 for two glasses, this is a gift that doesn’t need to break the bank but certainly looks high-end.

You don’t have to spend huge amounts to show your love this season, but if you choose to, there are some quality, stylish, and charitable options out there. And if you’ve left it a little late for shipping, remember that your local specialty café likely has some excellent choices, too.
