Yisss!
Just tried Nils’ Ethiopian coffee he sent... definitely one of the best coffees I’ve drunk! Total flavour explosion.

I've been looking for a travel coffee cup to cut down on my use of disposable ones while I'm out and about. This one is definitely on the shortlist, how do you like it?

It's great.

Love it. I've got the 20 oz. Had it for a while. I think they've done a redesign since. Sure the new ones are even better.
Keeps coffee hot for a long time. (Which isn't really an issue for me because I like to drink extremely freshly brewed coffee.

)
It's more of a container for me than something to drink straight out of. Although, you certainly can do that if you so choose. I prefer drinking from the enamel Moomin mug. Something extra to carry, but a more enjoyable coffee drinking experience for me.
Klean Kanteen does make a wide mouth coffee mug in 20 oz, but I don't really like the caps on most of those type mugs:
Next time, I'll probably go with something a little larger like the 32 oz:

I use the 32oz for water. Ice doesn't melt when it spends most of the day in my work truck. And they can take a beating too. Sometimes they come up on roofs when it is blistering hot outside.

Yeah I was thinking of the wide mouth because I'm trying to find something I can carry around in whatever bag I've got with me on a given day! An additional cup doesn't really work although it's a much better drinking experience! Thanks for the review.

Yeah Klean Kanteen is good stuff, I have the smaller wide mouthed one for carrot juice/and stuff

thing is well made.. I have dropped it in parking lots "a few" times and it is still fine

I have two Klean Kanteens. A 32oz and 20oz. You won't have to worry about the bottles ever. Lord have mercy on your floors if you drop them though

(I'm not joking though...unless you have carpet)

Minimalist scandi design. Sad.
(not that fond of carpets because they don't mix with coffee and red wine)
Thanks for the input everyone! I will definitely pick up a 12oz then.

I'd say get the 20 oz, but maybe that's just the American in me.
Maybe not though?
You need a little more room than you'd think for a tight seal. If you fill it too high, it'll leak. The 20 oz. will give you a little leeway.
