Review on ☕ Fellow Carter Move Travel Mug - 12 oz Vacuum-Insulated Stainless Steel Coffee and Tea Tumbler, Ceramic Interior, Splash Guard, Matte Black Cup by Gillian Ahn

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A good travel mug, certainly not the best

I bought this mug because I wanted to drink a little better compared to Zojirushi and it definitely achieved that thanks to the wide mouth. The mug JUST fits in the cup holders in the car and the splash guard definitely prevented the coffee from spilling until I opened the mug lid in the car. Another plus is that I can brew directly through the hole with a V60 or Kalita Wave. However, I have to disagree with the claim that the mug does not affect the taste of the coffee. I suspect this is due to a few bits of metal in the mug as sipping through the splash guard increases the 'acid'. And yes, the reviews are correct, the coffee smell lingers and turns into a kind of savory smell that some describe as "garlic" and I kinda see it. UPDATE: I ended up returning the product for Kinto Tumbler. I can't get rid of the smell even after countless washes.
