Hold Fast right side up, Pour Slow turned over: a sailor's steadiness, brought to the espresso bar.
There's a moment right before a pour starts, when the espresso has settled and the milk is ready, where everything about the art still comes down to the angle of the wrist. Get too close too soon and the crema breaks apart. Hold back too long and the lines blur before they ever form. The SLOW POUR SUPPLY® x WPM 15oz Round Spout Latte Art Pitcher was built for that exact window: a milk pitcher for pouring lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso-based drinks, shaped with a slanted rim and round spout, in the "Hold Fast Pour Slow" design, so you can work close to the surface without losing control of the pour.
A Phrase Born at Sea
Hold Fast is old sailor language, once inked across the knuckles of dockhands as a reminder to grip steady when the water turned rough. It carries that same idea here: stay grounded, stay resilient, hold onto what matters even as everything else moves.
Pour Slow is the other half, and it doubles as a quiet nod to Slow Pour Supply, the name on the label. In coffee, it means precision and patience. In everything else, it means the same thing: move with care, savor the process, and let the small, deliberate moments count.
Matthew Tabor, Art Director of the Houston design studio Letterset, translated that balance of strength and softness into a single piece of turnabout lettering. Read right side up, it says Hold Fast. Turn the pitcher over, and the same lines resolve into Pour Slow. It's drawn in a seafarer style that borrows from the hand-painted plaques and ropework you'd find on an old ship's wheel, the same tradition Letterset works in through its sign painting. Read one way, it's a grip. Read the other, it's a reminder.
That same care carries into how the pitcher pours. WPM, the pitcher's manufacturer, built the slanted rim to set a defined exit angle for the milk, letting it tilt more horizontally and bring the spout within about a centimeter of the espresso before anything starts to flow. Poured this way, the contact between milk and espresso is less abrupt, and the resulting art holds brighter whites against deeper crema.
Product Details
The Pitcher and Spout
The body holds 15 oz (450 mL), sized for the 6 to 8 oz pours common to lattes and cappuccinos. An internal marking at the 6 oz line gives a consistent fill point every time, so the milk-to-espresso ratio stays steady from one drink to the next. The handle wraps fully around the base, shaped to sit comfortably across grip styles and hold steady through a long pour.

The Lettering

Perfect for 6-8oz cups, these pitchers come with a 6oz milk volume indicator. Replacing the traditional 12oz pitchers for a more horizontal flow, enabling a less drastic initial contact. This gives the cup more contrast and higher color definition. This is our most popular size. Available in narrow, round and wide options.
ROUND SPOUT

Lipped round spout for bolder lines, this pitcher is great for thicker lines - slozettas, rosetta revolution, tulips, wing bases with thicker lines, and stacks. This pitcher is great for a higher flow rate. Available in our 10oz and 15oz pitchers
