*It is double walled*. The only place the internal surface is joined to 
the external surface is at the very lip of the cup, heat getting to the 
outer surface that way will quickly diffuse into the atmosphere. The 
interior of the cup might be vacuum or air, both good insulators...it is 
the same principle used in thermos bottles, these cups will probably 
keep coffee hot better than ceramic cups.
