This illustrated mug is a portable and creative work of contemporary art. The GOAT Mug is a [sustainable horn-shaped product](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourd) that draws inspiration from a story that says coffee was discovered by goats. In 2018, the creators collaborated with Mr. Doodle, a well-known English artist, who "doodles walls, rooms, furniture, vehicles, buildings and anything he can get his hands on."

The mug boasts intricate, wonderfully cartoonish black and white doodling. The [limited-edition drinking container](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shade-akanbi) comes with a set of straps for convenience in transportation, as well as a special holder that doubles as a stand.

Mr. Doodle's illustrated mug is 100% leakproof, dishwasher-safe and BPA-free. Its horn shape ensures that the consumer will drink the beverage to the last drop, while the product's insulation guarantees to keep the coffee hot.
