‘I really like the dark walnut cup and I would like to share my opinion about it,’ said Fifth. ‘I imagine that I am sitting in a room with walls covered with shelves of books. All the furniture is old walnut, there are two Chesterfield armchairs in genuine brown leather. On a small table lies an open book, near it - an antique lamp casts dim light. Soft classical music is playing. An ideal setting for reflection. In my hand, I have a walnut cup of whiskey with a rich and complex taste. The soft reflections from the golden surface of the amber drink play a wonderful dance and complement the feelings of cosiness and tranquillity. The taste of whiskey takes me to another world, where I am completely free. Every drop of whiskey becomes an experience that transports me to the world of silence and relaxation.’
First replied, ‘Did you know that walnut is mentioned for the first time in the Bible, maybe that's why they consider it a sacred tree.’
Fourth asked, ‘Can walnut cups have a different wood colour?’
‘In principle, yes,’ answered Second, ‘but visually it's not good. Walnut is a special tree, majestic in its own right. I don't think it's fair to spoil such beauty. Walnut and gold are a perfect combination. Both colours are warm.’
Summary:
Walnut is a broadleaf tree widely distributed in the Balkans. Whiskey cups made of walnut have a rich, dark colour and a smooth texture that feels comfortable in the hand. The combination of materials, the warm and natural beauty of the walnut and the soft shine of the gold, attracts attention, magically enhancing the aesthetic, adding a touch of luxury and sophistication.
‘I personally like the white maple cups,’ Second interjected.
‘I personally like the white maple cups,’ Second interjected. ‘I associate them with a garden party. People in small groups comfortably settled on soft garden furniture, in a friendly conversation. Light party music is heard, everyone is having fun and drinking golden whiskey with lots of ice from white maple cups. The atmosphere is casual, fresh and sunny, which is enhanced by the light colour of the cups. These are cups for parties.'
‘I would add that they are ideal for serving small quantities of whiskey or for whiskey tasting,’ said First. ‘Both silver and gold in combination with white maple give the cup a modern, contemporary and elegant style.’
Summary:
Maple is a deciduous tree that grows in the northern regions of Eurasia and North America. The tree is known for its beautiful, attractive shape, with its light bark and golden leaves. Its wood is almost white and has a beautiful texture that can be accentuated by special wood treatment.
Maple cups are light and easy to use, and they add a sophisticated and modern look to your home or office. For people who prefer a modern design with clean lines and neutral colours, white maple cups fit into the interior, making the space more elegant and fresh.
Whether you want to enjoy a weekend with friends or take a break from a busy day, white maple cups would be the perfect addition to your home bar.

It is interesting and remarkable how much history and how many artifacts there are in a territory as small as Bulgaria. During each excavation, archaeologists find a piece of the life of our ancestors. We are a nation with a rich past, and that is priceless. All these discoveries made by archaeologists are changing scientists' perceptions of the oldest centers of human civilization. The historical artifacts prove that a civilization flourished on the territory of Bulgaria long before the Hellenic one. A culture existed which created items of high artistic value.
‘There are two very real reasons to buy business gifts that are not necessarily warm and fuzzy. One is obviously to thank someone for their business for the year. The other is to make sure you remain top of mind, and to get your name in front.’
