This is the perfect time of the year to travel to work with a mug filled with either hot coffee or hot chocolate to warm up a cold body in the morning. It just so happens that, in our home, my husband is the big coffee drinker and I am the hot chocolate drinker. I’m not sure if there is an exact science to drinking hot fluids because my husband never seems to burn his tongue or his palate whereas I always seem to burn some part of my mouth. That is exactly why I was so eager to review the Brugo Mug by Jolex.
I was immediately intrigued by the fact that the Brugo Mug boasts that it is the only travel mug in the world that allows you to drink hot tea or coffee immediately. Obviously, this was music to my ears considering that I have been scalded repeatedly in the past by way too hot drinks and my eagerness to drink them before making sure that they were cool enough to drink. Those of you have been burned by hot drinks know exactly what I am talking about. These types of burns are extremely painful.
The Brugo Mug surpasses other mugs in that it allows you to take your sip separately from the main chamber of fluid. The “brandy swilling” motion cools that sip in the top chamber and keeps you from having to wait 20 minutes for your drink to cool down to a safe drinking temperature. You don’t have to worry about getting burned from spills either because Brugo is 100% leakproof so you can have your sip, twist to lock, drain the cooling chamber just in case, and off you go… it is that simple.
I immediately loved the sleek design of the Brugo Mug as soon as it arrived. It comes in a variety of colors to match your personality or simply to brighten up your mornings. I received a red one coincidentally and it worked out just great considering that red is my favorite color. Since I’m an avid hot chocolate drinker, I immediately filled my new mug with some as soon as I got the chance. Surprisingly, it was easy to swill each sip into the top chamber and I did not burn my mouth not once! I definitely recommend reading the enclosed instructions carefully before using your mug for the first time.
Additionally, I liked the fact that I was able to hold the Brugo Mug securely in one hand while holding my work satchel in the other hand. I’m not normally able to do this with insulated mugs because their shape is bulky and cumbersome and does not accommodate my small hands. Lastly, the rubber grip bottom of the mug made me feel comfortable placing my hot drink on any surface without having to worry that it was going to slip off and spill my drink. All this and the Brugo Mug also fit perfectly in the cup holder in my car!
Brugo is great for the whole family! Make sure that you check out the Brugo Website to see their full range of products and color options and “like” them on Facebook to find out about discounts or promotional offers.
