Tour de France espresso cups from Coffee & Cols
We love coffee! Coffee & Cols have a wide selection of espresso cups with a cycling design and here are their great Tour de France cups.
Jersey espresso cups; Coffee & Cols; £36 for set of 4
Set of four cups, £36, or if you only want, say the polka dots, they’re £9.95 separately. But my all-time fave has to be the velodrome cup.
