URBINO Espresso Obertasse, halbhoch

The half-high shape feels perfectly balanced in the hand, and the porcelain has that smooth, dense finish that makes every sip feel deliberate. It holds just the right amount for a proper espresso, and the clean white glaze really lets the crema stand out.

The grip on this half-high cup is surprisingly comfortable, and it keeps my espresso hot just long enough to enjoy slowly. The porcelain feels dense and well-made, a nice upgrade from my old chunky mugs.

The porcelain has a nice weight to it—solid but not clunky, and the half-high shape feels balanced in hand. Glaze is smooth and even, though I wish the rim were slightly thinner for a more delicate sip. It’s a clean, classic cup that does the job well.
