Details The ALTO Tasting Cup is designed to elevate the tasting experience for light, fruity, and citrusy coffees. Its hourglass shape and internal wave-ramps promote swirling, increasing surface area and aroma diffusion, which enhances brightness and flavor clarity. The wide rim ensures coffee flows evenly across the tongue, highlighting acidity and body. Handcrafted by artisans with over 30 years of combined experience, the 2.0 mm thick double-walled borosilicate glass is durable and maintains coffee temperature. With an 85 mm inner diameter, it’s the only AVENSI glass compatible with direct Aeropress brewing, though brewing into a separate vessel is recommended for safety. Coffee experts praise its ability to reveal hidden flavor notes, earning it a place in the 2021 Specialty Coffee Association’s Best New Product award.
