Picard’s Famous Tea Cup Is Coming Back, Years After It Was Discontinued
While we’ve occasionally questioned Jean-Luc Picard’s tastes in both food and drink, no matter how you feel about Earl Grey you can’t disallow that he and the Starfleet of the 2360s had great preference in mug design. Taste so great, in fact, almost a decade after the real-world mug TNG used to highlight Picard’s favorite past time was discontinued, it’s making its way back on sale.
Today Master Replicas confirmed that it’s releasing a new “Picard Cup” replicating the design used in TNG, Voyager, and Star Trek: Picard, collaborating with the original homeware company that provided the mugs for TNG art department to use during show, Bodum. One of several cocktail receptacles Picard imbibes with throughout the show, this particular mug—designed as part of Bodum’s BISTRO system in 1974 by Carsten Jørgensen—had been on sale due to both its iconic, basic retro-future design and its fandom association with Star Trek until 2016, when it was sadly finally discontinued… until now, that is.

Before Captain Janeway and her coffee, there was Captain Jean-Luc Picard and his tea. Many times on Star Trek: The Next Generation we saw him take a moment to order up some of his beloved Earl Grey, and the USS Enterprise-D replicator often delivered it in a particular cup. You can now buy a set of those cups from Bodum and Master Replicas.
Tea Cup, Bodum, Back
Picard’s distinctive teacups were actually off the shelf, made by European homewares company, Bodum. The art department wanted something that looked “both futuristic and timeless” and they chose cups from Bodum’s “BISTRO” line, designed in 1974 by Carsten Jørgensen and considered a modern classic of minimalist design.
The original BISTRO cups were discontinued in 2016, but Bodum have partnered with Master Replicas to bring them back into production for a limited run. The cups are crafted from heat-resistant borosilicate glass that won’t alter or impair the flavor of the tea. You can pre-order a set of four now from masterreplicas.com priced at £49.99/$54.99. The Picard cups will also be on sale at the official Bodum site.

In moments of stress or contemplation, Jean-Luc Picard, captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise-D, turned to his replicator and asked it to produce a hot cup of Earl Grey tea. The replicator, knowing exactly what he wanted, produced the tea in an elegant glass cup.
When it came to filming, the art department wanted the cup to look both futuristic and timeless. It had to be at home in the 24th Century, but it also had to be instantly recognizable. Rather than creating thei
