When 'that newfangled, abominable, heathenish liquor called coffee' was introduced in Europe in the late 1600s and became all the rage, women, who were not allowed in the all-male coffee houses, railed against the brew and the establishments that served it. In 1674, "The Women's Petition Against Coffee" was published. This 12 oz. ceramic mug highlights some of the petition's more choice and more terse remarks. Pair it with the 1674 Men's Defense of Coffee Mug, and you and a friend can enjoy a cup of that 'base, black, thick, nasty, bitter, stinking, nauseous puddle-water'. Dishwasher safe, arrives in gift box.
