With the Kinto, it means three separate silicone gaskets: two for the topmost lid and one for the lower one.

Instantly-recognisable with its two-stage lid design, the Kinto has a bold palette of powder-coated colour options. Moreover, the Kinto Travel Tumbler offers an incredible drinking experience and boast-worthy heat-holding properties – meaning it will likely be especially popular among iced coffee drinkers.It is vacuum insulated, which does add some bulk to the tumbler but not by much.

What’s more – the section of plastic along the flask tends to encourage condensation, especially in humid weather when it’s filled with an icy beverage. While it’s still stellar in the leakproof department, it means you’ll have to think twice before placing it next to documents or electronics.

While this means the tumbler is extremely watertight, the extensive disassembly creates quite a headache when it’s time to clean up. The multiple gaskets also tend to harbour odours, which coffee with its oils and aromas tends to create. Coffee tumblers are a dime a dozen, and for such seemingly simple implements, the wide range of prices is rather impressive. Coming in at the pricier end of things, the Kinto Travel Tumbler retails from about SGD 50, pitting itself against fellow insulated mugs and purpose-built coffee-focussed options.

Its vacuum insulation is remarkable, and freshly brewed V60 coffee at 7:30 a.m. comfortably stays piping hot till past noon. Kinto advertises six-hour performance for both hot (above 60ºC/149ºF) and cold (below 8ºC/46ºF) beverages, but I found that solid ice lasted well past the 12H mark when not regularly opened.
