I got some really nice espresso glasses

First time trying these out, they’re the Kruve Propel glasses. I got them from Cafuné out in Montreal.

These glasses are awesome. Double walled where the drink sits/where you hold it, single walled where you drink from, and internal fins to allow you to properly mix your shot from just swirling instead of needing to stir with a spoon. And the aromas you get from the glass when you’re about to drink, truly wonderful. Highly, highly recommended. I’ll be buying myself more of these in the future for sure.

Not my kind of thing to splurge on, but I do love them.

    Oh dang, they're Canadian? I wouldn't have guessed by the name.

    I had a glassware set from them and I was in need of an extra one… now might be a good time!

    edit: apparently based out of Toronto, but they don't advertise that at all on their website

    Yeah, they don’t say it on their website, but they do on their product page on Cafuné:

    “KRUVE is a proudly Canadian company comprised of engineers, product developers, designers and entrepreneurs. With great respect for design and a love of creating products that enrich people's lives, their hope is that you'll enjoy their glassware as much as they enjoyed creating it.”

    They also mention it on the box the glasses come in, too.

    Cafuné, out of Montreal, sells these. Here’s their KRUVE page:

    I keep forgetting to mention beans in my posts but I’m drinking Supernova by Hatch again. They’re pretty good filter beans but phenomenal espresso beans for my tastes. I’m not sure if it’s the beans or the glass or my technique improving but this is probably the best shot of espresso I’ve ever had in my life, seriously. And I’ve been drinking espresso at cafes long before I was into coffee.

    do you like to drink your espresso as hot as possible?

    Not as hot as possible, but I do like it to stay hot for a long time. It’s usually 15+ mins after brewing before I finish my drink. During my work days, I’m doing coffee while also doing the rest of my morning stuff so I might not even get to drinking my espresso for a bit. On my days off, I like to take my time and slowly sip. In both cases it’s a little while before it’s done being drank.
