Vialli Design TULIP – Set of 2 Double-Walled Glass Cups – 250 ml

☕ Coffee That Looks as Good as It Tastes

The Vialli Design TULIP 250 ml Double-Walled Glass Cups combine elegant glassware with practical thermal insulation.

Handmade from borosilicate glass, the two-wall construction creates a layer of insulation between your drink and your hand. Hot coffee stays warm for longer, while the outside of the cup remains much more comfortable to hold. The same insulating effect also works with cold drinks.

Each set contains:

2 × 250 ml TULIP cups

A versatile size for:

☕ Filter coffee

🤎 Flat white

🥛 Cappuccino

☕ Americano

🍵 Tea

🧊 Iced coffee

🍹 Cold drinks

🌷 TULIP Design

These are not just straight-sided double-wall glasses.

The TULIP series uses a distinctive organic shape that gives the cup more personality while remaining comfortable to hold.

Vialli Design describes the collection as combining modern styling with an unusual visual form designed to make both the drink and the serving experience more attractive.

The transparent glass works especially well with layered drinks where you want to see:

🤎 Espresso

🥛 Milk

✨ Microfoam

🧊 Ice

🍹 Different coffee layers

🔬 Handmade Borosilicate Glass

The cups are handmade from high-quality borosilicate glass. Vialli specifically highlights the material for its suitability for hot and cold drinks and its resistance to temperature changes.

Borosilicate is a particularly nice material for coffee glassware because it can be:

🪶 Lightweight

🔥 Heat resistant

👀 Crystal clear

✨ Visually refined

Compared with a thick conventional drinking glass, the experience feels lighter and more delicate.

🧊 How Double-Wall Glass Works

The cup is effectively:

one glass inside another.

Between those two walls is an insulating layer.

That reduces direct heat transfer from the beverage to the outside surface.

The result:

With hot coffee 🔥

☕ Coffee retains temperature longer

🖐️ Cup feels more comfortable to hold

With cold coffee ❄️

🧊 Drink stays cool for longer

💧 Less direct temperature transfer to your hand

Vialli specifically markets the double wall for improved temperature retention and hand protection.

👀 Let the Coffee Float

One of the nicest visual effects of double-wall glassware is the impression that the drink is almost floating inside the cup.

With coffee, this can make:

🤎 Crema

🥛 Milk layers

🧊 Iced coffee

🍫 Chocolate

🌸 Coffee cocktails

much more visually interesting.

That makes the TULIP especially nice for serving coffee when presentation matters.

☕ 250 ml – A Very Useful Coffee Size

At 250 ml, the cup is large enough for milk drinks and generous filter portions without becoming an oversized mug.

A few ideas:

🤎 Flat White

A double espresso with silky microfoam.

🥛 Cappuccino

Enough room for espresso plus beautifully textured milk.

☕ Filter Coffee

Approximately 180–230 ml leaves some comfortable headspace.

☕ Americano

Espresso plus hot water without needing a huge mug.

🧊 Iced Coffee

Coffee plus several ice cubes while keeping the drink visually attractive.

👃 CoffeeNose Tip – Don't Automatically Fill the Cup

Cup size is not a recipe.

Just because your glass holds:

250 ml

does not mean every coffee should contain 250 ml of liquid.

For filter coffee, we often prefer leaving some headspace.

Why?

👃 More room for aroma

🖐️ Easier handling

🌡️ Better drinking temperature

☕ More elegant presentation

And for milk drinks, use the quantity of milk that gives you the espresso-to-milk balance you actually enjoy.

🥛 Great for Latte Art

The 250 ml format makes the TULIP especially suitable for home-barista milk drinks.

Try:

☕ Double espresso

+

🥛 Approximately 150–180 ml textured milk

and adjust according to your coffee and preferred strength.

Because the cup is transparent, you can see the espresso and milk integrate as you pour.

Particularly satisfying when practising:

❤️ Heart

🌷 Tulip

🌿 Rosetta

A TULIP in a TULIP. 😄

❄️ Also Excellent for Iced Coffee

The thermal insulation works in both directions.

Use the glasses for:

🧊 Iced filter coffee

🧊 Iced Americano

🥛 Iced latte

🍹 Coffee mocktails

🍵 Iced tea

The transparent walls make cold drinks particularly attractive because you can see all the layers.

🧼 Dishwasher Safe

Unlike some decorative Vialli glassware with metallic details, the TULIP 250 ml set is officially listed as:

dishwasher safe.

That makes these much more practical for everyday use.

CoffeeNose Tip

Even though the manufacturer permits dishwasher cleaning, treat handmade glassware sensibly:

✔️ Position it securely

✔️ Avoid contact with heavy pots and cutlery

✔️ Don't force cups tightly between other objects

Borosilicate glass handles temperature well.

It still doesn't particularly enjoy being smashed against a saucepan.

🎁 A Great Gift for a Coffee Lover

Because the set contains two matching cups, it also makes an easy coffee gift.

Combine it with:

🫘 WB.coffee tasting set

🍫 Specialty chocolate

☕ Filter coffee

⚖️ Small brewing scale

🎟️ Amsterdam Coffee Lab workshop voucher

for something much more interesting than another generic coffee mug.

🍫 Pair with FC – Fruity & Chocolaty

For filter coffee, try:

FC – Fruity & Chocolaty

A balanced profile combining:

🍫 Familiar chocolate

🍓 Fruit

🍯 Sweetness

☕ Comfortable body

Beautiful as a larger black coffee in the transparent TULIP.

🍓 Pair with FJ – Fruity & Juicy

FJ – Fruity & Juicy

💧 Filter coffee

🌀 AeroPress

☕ Modern coffee recipes

🌰 Pair with CN – Chocolaty & Nutty

Using the cups mainly for cappuccino or flat white?

Try:

CN – Chocolaty & Nutty

Our popular HoReCa espresso blend with a flavour direction of:

🍫 Milk chocolate

🌰 Nuts

🍮 Caramel

🍯 Brown sugar

🍰 Fudge

A sweet espresso profile that stays beautifully present through steamed milk.

🍮 Pair with VC – Vanilla & Caramel

For an even softer milk-coffee combination:

VC – Vanilla & Caramel

Expect:

🌼 Vanilla

🍮 Caramel

🍯 Sweetness

🥛 Creamy milk compatibility

A natural match for the 250 ml TULIP format.

🌍 Try a Single Origin

The transparent glass also works beautifully for aromatic filter coffee.

Ask WB.coffee for a current single-origin recommendation or explore coffees such as:

🍓 Kenya

🌸 Ethiopia

💎 Guatemala Gesha

🍍 Experimental Central American coffees

🌍 Changing seasonal microlots

The double wall helps keep your coffee warm while you slow down and actually taste it.

👅 Perfect for Side-by-Side Tasting

Because there are two identical cups, use them for comparative tasting.

For example:

Cup 1

🍫 Chocolaty blend

Cup 2

🌸 Floral single origin

Or keep the coffee identical and compare:

⚙️ Two grind sizes

🌡️ Two temperatures

💧 Two brew ratios

☕ Two brewing methods

Using identical drinkware removes one more variable from the comparison.

❤️ Why We Like Them at WB.coffee

We like double-wall cups when they improve the drinking experience without turning the glass into an oversized thermal mug.

The 250 ml TULIP gets that balance right.

It's large enough for:

☕ filter

and

🥛 milk drinks

but still feels like proper coffee glassware.

The double wall is genuinely useful:

🔥 warmer coffee

🖐️ cooler fingers

and the transparent design makes the coffee itself part of the presentation. Vialli also makes this version practical enough for everyday use by making it dishwasher safe.

CoffeeNose verdict 👃

Use one cup for something:

🍫 chocolaty.

Use the other for something:

🌸 fruity or floral.

Taste them next to each other.

The best use for a set of two cups is not necessarily sharing.

Sometimes it's comparing.
