This cup is specially designed around the idea that the cup you drink from can change how coffee tastes. 

2-WayCup — Barista Series, 160ml

How it works

Two rim profiles, two different experiences. The narrow rim channels coffee toward the front of your tongue, bringing out sweetness, intensity, and a fuller body. The flared rim opens the flow wider, letting it spread toward the back of your tongue, which lifts aroma, pulls out floral notes, and stretches the finish into something lighter and silkier. Same coffee, different read on it, depending on which side you sip from.

Why this size

The 160ml works well for milk drinks and shared portions of filter coffee. Big enough to give your latte art room to breathe, small enough to keep things intentional.

Colors

Available from Archetype in Milky Pink and Milky Purple. Each color is paired with a flavor profile to help you remember which rim and which coffee clicked for you.
