Costa Nova Espresso Cups Grespresso White 80 ml - 3 pieces
Capacity 80 ml – the perfect size for an espresso or ristretto
Reactive glaze – a unique gradient from white to warm sand tones
Costa Nova – authentic Portuguese top-quality design
Dishwasher-safe – effortlessly shiny and clean after your coffee moment
Every morning begins with that one moment: the smell of freshly ground coffee, the soft bubbling of the espresso machine, and then - that small but perfect cup in your hands. The Costa Nova Grespresso espresso cups in white are made for exactly that moment. No unnecessary frills, no embellishments: just pure Portuguese craftsmanship in a shape that brings out the best in your espresso. This is the upgrade your coffee ritual deserves.
Why these cups are different from the rest
Costa Nova has been making ceramics in Portugal for decades, and it shows in every detail: the weight of the cup, the way it retains heat, the subtle transition from white to warm sand tones in the glaze. The Grespresso collection is designed without a handle - intentionally, and for a reason. This gives these cups a modern, minimalist look that fits just as well in a trendy coffee bar as on your kitchen table.
- Perfect size for espresso and ristretto - With a capacity of 80 ml, it’s just right: not too full, not too tight. Your shot shines.
- Reactive glaze with character - No two cups are exactly the same. The white subtly transitions into warm sand tones, giving each cup its own handmade signature.
- Handmade in Portugal - Authentic Costa Nova craftsmanship, made from stoneware - a fine, durable earthenware that lasts for years.
- Stackable design - Space in your kitchen cabinet is always welcome. These cups stack effortlessly, neatly, and stably.
- Suitable for freezer, microwave, oven, and dishwasher - No hassle, no special treatment. Just use and enjoy.
Stoneware: the silent strength behind each cup
Behind the name stoneware lies a conscious material choice. Costa Nova developed this fine earthenware as a more sustainable alternative to traditional ceramics - less weight, more strength, and a refined surface that keeps the espresso at the right temperature. The material is heat resistant up to 250 degrees Celsius, which means you can also use it in the oven for small food preparations. Yes, really - these cups are more versatile than you think. Use them for hot chocolate, a small appetizer, or serve an amuse during a dinner with friends. It can all be done, and it always looks delicious.
Because each cup is handmade, it carries the subtle marks of the maker. Small variations in the glaze, a slight asymmetry - that’s not a flaw, that’s character. And you can taste that character, literally, in every coffee moment.
The coffee ritual you deserve
A good espresso deserves a good cup. Not because it has to, but because it makes a difference. Heat stays longer retained in this stoneware, so your shot doesn’t cool down before you take the first sip. The weight of the cup in your hand feels pleasant and solid - no thin, wobbly porcelain that you have to hold with two fingers. This is drinking coffee as it was meant to be: consciously, with attention, as a real moment for yourself.
And because it lacks a handle, you hold the cup differently - with both hands, as is customary in Japan during tea ceremonies. That action alone makes an ordinary morning something that has a bit more meaning. A small reminder that enjoyment doesn’t have to be complicated.
Serve your cups on a nice saucer, combine them with an espresso machine that really delivers, and place them on the table when expecting guests. Count on someone asking about them.
Ideal as a gift - or as a treat for yourself
This set of three espresso cups is just the right size for a gift that is both beautiful and practical. Whether you give them to the coffee lover in your circle, or simply decide that you deserve them: the packaging, the material, and the appearance speak for themselves. Costa Nova stands for authentic Portuguese design that not only looks beautiful but also withstands the test of time.
Three cups in the set also means: always enough for yourself and a guest. Or for three rounds of espresso when the day is long and the coffee is much needed. No judgment here.
💡 Cookinglife Tip: Rinse the cups with hot water before use. This ensures that the espresso stays at the right temperature and you taste the full flavor of each shot. Small effort, big difference.
