Product Description
The Steelite Craft Liquorice Quench Mug is a 285ml hot drinks mug produced in a deep, matt-finish black colourway. It is part of Steelite's Craft range, which uses a hand-decorated reactive glaze process — meaning each piece absorbs the glaze slightly differently during firing. The result is that no two mugs are identical, giving a naturally varied, artisan appearance without any inconsistency in quality or durability.
Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these mugs are built to the standard expected of commercial tableware. Alumina vitrification increases the density and hardness of the ceramic body, making it more resistant to chipping and thermal shock than standard earthenware. In a busy café, hotel, or restaurant environment, where mugs are handled repeatedly and cycled through commercial dishwashers multiple times a day, this matters. The glaze holds its appearance well under regular service conditions.
Key practical points for operators:
- Safe for commercial dishwashers — no need for hand-washing programmes
- Reactive glaze gives each mug a subtly unique finish, which suits informal or artisan-style presentation
- The liquorice black colourway works well against lighter crockery if mixed within a range
- Supplied in a pack of 24, suited to initial stocking or topping up existing sets
The 285ml capacity is consistent with a standard serving size for filter coffee, flat whites, and similar hot drinks, though operators running espresso-forward menus should confirm this size suits their cup programme before ordering in volume.
If you are building out a full tableware scheme and want guidance on complementary pieces within the Steelite Craft range, or are unsure whether the pack size suits your projected covers, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. The alumina vitrified ceramic construction is specifically suited to commercial dishwashing cycles. The material is denser and more resistant to thermal shock than standard ceramic, so the mugs hold up well under the temperatures and detergents used in commercial machines.
- There will be visible variation between individual mugs. The reactive glaze used in the Craft range is hand-applied and responds differently during firing, so each piece has a slightly different surface texture and tonal variation within the liquorice colourway. This is intentional to the range design, not a quality inconsistency.
- For most filter coffee, flat white, and Americano serves, 285ml is a practical working size. If your menu leans heavily toward larger latte or tea servings, it is worth checking this against your portion sizes before committing to a full stock order. We are happy to advise if you want to talk through your cup programme.
