Demitasse


A demitasse or demi-tasse is a small cup used to serve Turkish coffee or espresso. It may also refer to the contents served in such a cup.
A demitasse typically has a capacity of approximately, half the size of a full coffee cup. They are typically ceramic and accompanied by matching saucers, but some coffeehouses and china companies also produce brightly decorated varieties. Another type of demitasse has a glass cup set into a metal frame.
