There are two types of coffee cups, a wide-mouth cup and a straight-mouth cup. For two kinds of coffee cups of the same material and different shapes, the coffee flavor you feel is different. The shape of the cup mouth affects the first contact between the coffee and the taste buds at the entrance, which determines which flavor of the coffee is the first to be intimate with you.
1, wide mouth cup: As the name suggests, the cup will be expanded to the outside, relatively open. This also allows coffee to better reach the wider taste buds, allowing your tongue to feel the full flavor of coffee, especially the acid flavor experience.
2, straight cup: that is, the cup mouth is perpendicular to the tabletop, the coffee entrance is more concentrated, directly contact the sweet zone and the middle zone, and the taste is more balanced.
The wall thickness of the coffee cup is also thick and thin.
