Handle with care.

MUG: Enameled steel with chrome lip (made in China), 16 ounce, via MINI Merchandise.

COFFEE: Colombia Huila, Pitalito, from Barrett's Micro Roast Coffee.

NOTES: Souvenir mug from MINI Takes The States 2018. Very attractive, unusable for anything hot (burn your hands, scald your lips, oh boy). Best use is either as a pencil cup, or as an ice and bourbon holder (two ice cubes, two ounces of Very Old Barton KSBW).

Happy as a pig in mud.

MUG: M Ware coffee mug (made in China), heavy cafe/naval-style mug ('tactical self-defense' weight?).

COFFEE: Colombia Huila, Pitalito, from Barrett's Micro Roast Coffee.

NOTES: While on a trip through parts of West Texas and The Big Empty, I stopped in at Booked Up, Larry McMurtry's bookstore/collection in his hometown of Archer City, Texas. I didn't have time to prowl around the shelves and stacks and tables of the two buildings, but I did have time to swap a couple of stories with the proprietress, and purchase this mug.
