A ceramic snob's coffee mugs...ranked

A good mug makes a hot brew taste better. Makes you feel better too. This is my top ten, kitchen cupboard countdown.

Call me snooty, prissy, fussy, if you like. Finicky and pretentious even. But I honestly can’t drink a cup of coffee (or tea) from a mug that I don’t like. I just won’t do it.

My receptacle prejudice includes mugs like those giant ones you get with a Sports Direct internet delivery, anything with a breakfast cereal box character printed on it…
