I can tell you right now that nobody pays closer attention to the minute details that go into making everyday things enjoyable then David Pier. Nothing - and I mean nothing - is left to chance. There is a specific reason for every little wrinkle or rim on these cups - the end result is a coffee-drinking experience which makes me feel like an aristocrat.

The main reason you never see undulating rims on cups is that they are more complex to manufacture, and therefore cost a bit more, and cost is almost always given precedence over user experience. As far as making espresso drinks in them, they have only been on the market for a few weeks so I am still waiting for feedback in regards to this. I will have some expert opinions and pictures soon... I assure you, they are, if anything, easier to drink from than other cups, and I have not yet had a customer who disagreed.

I'm thinking that the pour, let alone the drinking, would be difficult enough to render them useless. Thoughts? How do you think these things would fare in an espresso environment.
