(Regardless of the latest mug designs out there, I still crave a handle for slow sipping and general ruminating while I work.) I also appreciate that the MagSlider lid makes it easy to carry without any splashing or spillage when I’m on the move. This YETI Rambler mug feels substantial in your hand and comes with a nice handle. (That said, if you’re looking for a mug with the absolute most heat-retention on the planet, I’d probably recommend the Zojirushi - which my partner has and swears by - but in my opinion, it keeps liquids almost too hot and I burn my mouth.)

And I’ve put that insulation to the test: I’ve left a full mug in my car for over an hour - in Wisconsin winter temperatures - and come back to enjoy still-warm sips. With the YETI, my coffee stays hot for hours on end, completely eradicating the need to reheat. The YETI Rambler 10-ounce mug was my first foray into the world of double-wall vacuum insulation, and it immediately proved that I’d been drinking coffee wrong this whole time. The answer to that question is a resounding yes, and it should be noted that I’m not usually the kind of person to shell out top-dollar simply for a name or label.

So what makes the YETI Rambler coffee mug so worth the price tag? Here’s my in-depth, unfiltered review - and yes, it covers a range of different mug sizes and styles from the Rambler line because my YETI obsession (and growing collection) has no bounds. It’s not an overstatement when I say that it’s completely changed my coffee drinking experience. And yet, it wasn’t until I got a YETI coffee mug that my setup truly reached the zenith. Espresso maker, milk frother, coffee bean grinder, French press. I used to love the ritual of getting my daily dose of caffeine from a coffee shop, but when the pandemic hit, I decided to bring the whole operation in-house.
