Designed for Balance: Explore Coffee's Full Spectrum
The H-shaped DW Series cup by MHW-3BOMBER is crafted for those who value flavour harmony.

How It Works
The vertical wall design helps streamline coffee flow across the palate, reducing splashing and enhancing the perception of mouthfeel.

Why Choose the MHW DW Glass H-Shaped 160ml?
It’s the perfect union of visual clarity, ergonomic comfort, and flavour performance. Designed by MHW-3BOMBER to balance the nuances of aroma, acidity, and sweetness with a full-bodied feel, it’s a professional choice for those who appreciate specialty coffee.
How to Use
Pre-warm the glass by rinsing with hot water. Serve your coffee directly into the cup to maintain brew temperature and showcase clarity. The H-shaped body ensures liquid disperses evenly across the tongue, amplifying depth and balance.
Maintenance & Cleaning
Hand wash or use the top rack of the dishwasher. Avoid sudden temperature shocks. Minor imperfections such as bubbles or ripples may occur due to the handmade nature of borosilicate glass but do not impact performance or safety.
Best Practices for Brewing
Use with pour-over brewers or as part of a sensory cupping setup. For espresso, it pairs well with small-scale single-origin shots. Ideal for baristas wanting to evaluate structure and sweetness in filter coffees.
