Choosing Cups for Your Tasting or Activation
For wine, coffee and spirit tastings, clear acrylic 50ml and 65ml cups present colour and clarity cleanly while being far more durable and portable than glass — ideal for tasting rooms, events and travelling activations. For food and gelato sampling, pair cups with 2ml tasting and stirring spoons.
If you run high-volume in-store campaigns, order by the carton so multi-store, multi-week activations never run short, and choose a single consistent cup style so your brand presentation stays uniform across locations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the cups reusable or single-use?
Acrylic cups are sturdy enough to wash and reuse in a tasting room, while also being cost-effective enough for single-use sampling at large activations — your choice based on the setting.
What sizes do the tasting cups come in?
We stock 50ml and 65ml acrylic tasting cups, which suit wine, coffee, tea and food sampling. Larger 250ml tumblers are available for cold drinks and lab use.
Can I order in bulk for a national campaign?
Yes — cups and spoons ship in bulk cartons with wholesale pricing and nationwide delivery, sized for multi-store promotional runs.
Choosing tasting cups for sampling programmes
A useful tasting-cup order starts with the sample being served, the required portion, the number of participants and the way cups will be presented. Wine, coffee, sauces, dry ingredients and quality-control samples place different demands on cup capacity and handling. Confirm the intended use before selecting a cup so the team receives a practical format rather than ordering by appearance alone. For recurring activations, keep the chosen size consistent across branches so portion planning and stock replenishment are easier to manage.
Order-planning checklist
- Match cup capacity to the intended sample and planned serving volume, allowing enough headroom for clean handling.
- Estimate quantities from expected participants, sessions per day and a sensible contingency for damaged or contaminated cups.
- Check whether clear presentation is important for colour, texture or quality inspection during the sampling process.
- Plan the supporting items at the same time, including tasting spoons, measuring scoops, lids or trays where the workflow requires them.
Plan for day-to-day use
Before a large rollout, test a representative cup with the actual product and serving method. This confirms that staff can fill, carry and present the sample without slowing the activation. Store cups in clean, dry conditions and keep opened stock protected between sessions. Where several sample types are offered, separate stock by cup size and label the service point clearly. A simple per-event usage record will also show whether future orders should be adjusted for attendance, wastage or changes in portion size.
Request an accurate trade quote
For a useful quotation, provide the cup size or sample volume, expected quantity, delivery location and required date. Mention whether the order supports a once-off event, a national activation or ongoing quality-control work, because this affects replenishment planning. Mitrend can then confirm current availability and help compare suitable sampling formats. Buyers can also review related measuring and sampling products before finalising one consolidated order.
