Costa Nova Espresso Cups Grespresso Nature 80 ml - 3 pieces
Made from Ecogres® – 100% sustainable, eco-friendly recycled ceramic material
High-contrast design – unique unglazed exterior with a glossy glazed interior
Costa Nova – authentic Portuguese top-quality design
Your morning ritual deserves more than a random cup from a set of twelve monotonous examples. The Costa Nova Grespresso Nature espresso cups transform that daily coffee ritual into something you want to experience consciously - three cups, three subtly different shades, and a story of craftsmanship that you feel every morning as soon as you pick them up. This is not dinnerware. This is a statement.
Three shades, one strong character
The Grespresso Nature collection revolves around a palette that feels surprisingly natural - without ever becoming boring. Natural White brings a bright, fresh tone of fine stoneware. Sand White adds warmth: a soft, earthy appearance that gives even the most ordinary morning something to say. Slate White has character: cool, calm, and confident. Together, they form a tabletop that works without you having to try.
You do not choose three identical cups. You choose three characters that work beautifully together. Set all three on the table when friends come over for a coffee, and you will get questions - the good kind.
Why you will love these espresso cups
- Ecogres - 100% recycled ceramic material - Costa Nova developed this material themselves: production leftovers get a second life, with the same top quality as new.
- Handmade in Portugal - authentic craftsmanship with a real origin; small variations between the cups are character, not flaws.
- Contrasting design - unglazed matte outside meets a glossy glazed inside; a conscious design choice that looks and feels great.
- Stackable - takes up hardly any space, even in the smallest kitchen.
- Dishwasher safe - just put them in, no hassle, just enjoy.
- Microwave safe - because sometimes that second espresso needs a quick warm-up.
- Heat resistant up to 250 degrees Celsius - robust, reliable, and made for daily use.
- Freezer safe - ready for anything you do with them.
The texture contrast that makes a difference
Pick up one of these cups and you will notice it immediately: the outside feels raw and real - matte, textured, with the warmth of Portuguese clay under your fingers. Then you look inside and see a smooth, glossy glaze that is pure and hygienic, designed to present your espresso at its best. That contrast is no coincidence. It is a conscious choice that gives the cup the feeling of something you want to keep for years - not something you replace after a season.
Because each cup is hand-finished, no two pieces are exactly the same. Small variations in surface and tone are not defects - they are proof that real hands were involved. That is exactly what handmade distinguishes from mass production, and it is exactly what you choose when you place Costa Nova on your table.
80 ml: the right size for a serious espresso
With 80 ml, this cup is perfectly tuned for a classic espresso or a ristretto with breathing room. Not so small that the crema overflows, not so large that the coffee cools before you get to it. With a diameter of 60 mm and a height of 58 mm, the cup fits perfectly in the hand - compact, sturdy, warm. That first sip really lands differently when the cup feels good.
Preheating these cups takes thirty seconds and makes a noticeable difference: pour in hot water, swirl around, throw it away, then set your shot. The cup retains heat longer and every sip stays at the temperature it deserves. Small detail, big effect - that is how it works with good dinnerware.
💡 Cookinglife Tip: Preheat the cups by filling them with hot water for 30 seconds before pulling your shot. The difference in heat retention is immediately noticeable - your guests will notice it too, even if you don’t say anything.
Sustainable design without compromise
Costa Nova developed the Ecogres formula themselves - a 100% recycled ceramic material that gives production leftovers a second life instead of wasting them. These cups are not sold as sustainable while secretly compromising on quality elsewhere. The quality is genuinely excellent, the material is real, and products that last ten years are always the most sustainable choice. No disposable culture here - just well-made items that deserve their place on your shelf and truly merit that place.
Costa Nova - Portuguese craftsmanship at your table
Costa Nova is one of Portugal's most respected ceramic brands, and you feel that as soon as you hold one of their pieces. The brand combines traditional handcraft techniques with contemporary design and a serious commitment to sustainability. Each cup carries a silent nod to the rich Portuguese ceramic heritage - but made for the modern kitchen, the modern table, and the modern pace of life. Once you own Costa Nova, you understand why people remain loyal to it for years. This is tableware with a point of view, and that point of view is right.
