demitasses
Small espresso cups
Demitasses are small cups used for serving espresso or strong black coffee, typically holding about half the volume of a standard coffee cup.
The word comes from French meaning "half cup." By extension, demitasse refers to the coffee served in such cups: We finished dinner with demitasses and petit fours.
