Espresso glasses are not as common as the classic espresso cup, but this does not diminish their advantages. There are thick-walled espresso glasses made of normal glass, but also double-walled ones made of borosilicate glass. The majority of espresso glasses are dishwasher safe, just like most espresso cups. Some have the look of a shot glass, but also the look of a white thermal glass filled with an espresso shot. Anyone who thinks that the heat of the espresso is lost in an espresso glass before it is drunk is wrong. If the espresso glass is double-walled, the air between the two walls keeps the heat in the espresso shot glass. Anyone who is worried that the filled espresso glass could become too hot on the fingertips can use the version with a handle. At Aromatico, in addition to cups for coffee, we also have Italian espresso glasses from various roasters at a fair price. For that espresso shot in the morning, when you have visitors or simply because you prefer the elegant glass look – having espresso glasses in the kitchen cupboard is always a good choice.
In the future, admire the cream of your daily espresso from all sides
One criterion for evaluating a perfect espresso is definitely the quality of the crema. The espresso glass is designed for precisely this purpose. Unlike an espresso cup, it allows you to view the crema and tiger stripes up close and from all sides. Even if you prefer to use your espresso to create a coffee specialty with milk: an espresso macchiato also looks wonderful in an espresso glass and can be viewed from all sides. Aromatico tip: To ensure that the crema is particularly dense and delicious, we recommend using an espresso with at least 30% Robusta beans. Take a look around our shop to choose the best espresso beans. Alternatively, you can use the espresso and coffee glasses as water glasses or drinking glasses by drinking still water from them before the espresso, just like in Italy. This neutralizes your taste and prepares your palate for the espresso to come. The espresso shot glass is not only ideal for water or simple coffee specialties, it is also a wonderful companion at parties for espresso shots with a dash of alcohol. Aromatico offers a variety of espresso glasses with the logo of your favorite roaster. Now drink your favorite blend from the espresso glass of the corresponding roaster and admire the crema from all sides!
