The Italian “spotted milk” from latte macchiato glasses
Originally, the latte macchiato was known in coffee-loving Italy as "spotted milk" and was declared a drink for children. Today, no office, café or coffee shop is imaginable without the milk-based coffee specialty. It is mainly served in beautiful, large and, above all, transparent glasses. The latte macchiato glasses are usually rather narrow at the bottom and get wider towards the top, corresponding to a conical shape. Thanks to this shape and the glass properties, the individual layers of the latte macchiato can be visually distinguished from one another. A look through the glass walls prepares you for the spotted coffee pleasure - what a great picture of milk foam and espresso in alternating layers!

variety of latte macchiato glasses
When preparing a latte macchiato, 150 to 200 ml of very tightly frothed milk is first poured into the glass and then the espresso (approx. 25 to 30 ml) can be poured in. There are therefore two criteria that you should consider if you want to buy a latte macchiato glass: a capacity of at least 250 ml and, of course, the material of glass. So that you can take the freshly brewed coffee specialty from the coffee machine to your place of enjoyment without a long cooling time, most latte macchiato glasses are double-walled or they are latte macchiato glasses with handles. Thanks to the thick-walled coffee glasses, you not only prevent your fingers from scalding when carrying them, but the heat can also be kept in the glass for longer. Don't be fooled by the size of the glasses, they often appear much larger due to the double or thicker walls. Aromatico offers you a selection of different glasses for latte macchiato in different shapes and each with the logo of your favorite roaster.
