Tea cup

Why a specific cup or mug for tea?

Choosing a teacup or mug is more than just a matter of shape: it influences how you enjoy your tea. The size and material of a cup directly impact the temperature, the preservation of the brew, and the perception of its flavors. A cup that's too small will quickly cool your tea, while one that's too large risks diluting its taste. The right material (porcelain, fine ceramic, or glass) helps maintain an optimal temperature while preserving the richness of the aromas.

In addition to its functionality, the aesthetics of your teacup also play a vital role. A well-designed cup will enhance both a robust black tea and a delicate green tea. The design, color, and texture of the cup influence your tea moment: a beautiful cup invites you to slow down, take a moment for yourself, and savor each sip.

Betjeman & Barton accessories are not only practical, but also decorative objects. An elegant teacup transforms a simple moment into a truly special experience. Whether used for a solitary tea break, a moment shared with friends, or as a thoughtful gift, it adds a touch of refinement to every occasion.
