Abstract
The jug (1) serving to store hot beverages, in particular coffee or tea, is furnished on the brim (4) on its top side (3) with a spout (8) which, together with the top side (3) of the jug (1), can be covered by a lid (9). In the horizontal position of the jug (1), the top side (3) is covered in the area of the spout (8) by a flap (15) movable around an axis of rotation (27). When the jug (1) is tilted out of its horizontal position to assume its pouring position, said flap (15) is lifted from the spout (8) in consequence of the force of gravity and/or by forces exerted by the beverage itself.
