Rhino Stainless Steel Cupping Spoon – for Tasting
A quick, noisy slurp from the surface, and the coffee spreads throughout the mouth – revealing what's in the bean.

What the Cupping Spoon Does
During cupping, you use the spoon to take a sip from the surface and slurp it – this distributes the coffee broadly in your mouth. Taste and smell are inseparable: a large part of the aroma is created retronasally when the compounds rise to the olfactory membrane during swallowing. The stainless steel spoon features the Rhino Coffee Gear logo on the handle.
During cupping, the spoon reveals what's in the bean – every sip is a discovery. Our opinion is one of many.
