By that I mean a coffee (or tea) mug which is the only one which you will consider for your favourite beverage? I know I do. For some reason coffee doesn't taste the same in any other mug and whoe betide anyone else who dares to use it! The only problem with that is what happens if your favourite mug gets broken? Nightmare! It can takes ages to settle on a replacement and, until we do, coffee just doesn't taste the same!

@TheHorse It was, especially since I can't replace the other one easily.

Not a mug but cup and saucer, I bought a full service (6 cups, 6 saucer) should I break one, I have back-ups.

I have an orange mug from Mexico. We were at thee Anthropological Museum with my daughter when I noticed in a place where they sold souvenirs. I turned my head and when I went to buy it, it wasn´t there. My eldest daughter had just bought it for me!!!

Here in our home, each one has a personal mug that says something about their personality. Mine is one for book lovers. But I mostly have coffee/ tea with my husband. I have; ne couple pair gifted to us by our daughters. His cup says Dad is the boss, mine says- mom is the real boss. That's our favourite

I think I have several. One is a black mug that says: "I live in America but I was made in Canada." It was my mothers'.
