I grow my own coffee
My wife makes her own cups. It tastes sooooo much better when you drink from a virgin cup.
This glazed ceramic rubbish from China, which has been through 10,000 washing cycles just is horrible. The 'real' coffee drinkers will know what I mean....you can taste the boiling detergent if you are aware of what you are doing.
We have virgin cups every morning straight out of our kiln. Naturally they are big, to reduce the surface area to volume contamination between the black liquid and cup. The interface is what the human tongue can taste....once again, if you know what you are doing.
Some people we know actually drink from public cups in cafes. Life's too short to drink from anything but a virgin cup.
