CherryTree, the bespoke computer company who first entered the Star Trek arena back in 2017 with their Borg Cube computers, has made a bit of a push into other licensing arenas in the past year or two, including Trek-themed deskmats, keyboards and mice.

But the company made a surprise reveal at January’s Star Trek convention in San Francisco, now available online: their new “IYKYK” Spaceport mug, a replica of the familiar blue raktajino mug seen at Replimat tables aboard space station Deep Space 9.

While Highwave’s Hotjo mug made frequent appearances around DS9, mainly in Quark’s Bar, these smaller, 8-ounce mugs were seen throughout all seven seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine — and even made a brief appearance at the beginning of the Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover episode “Birthright, Part I.”

A representative from CherryTree told us about the mugs, which are based upon another manufacturer’s original design:

Spaceport “IYKYK” Mug is a replica product emulating the mugs that were seen in the replimat on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The mugs were originally designed by the folks from the Feltman Langer Company in the early 80s — they had a design patent on them, which expired in 1999. The original mugs were actually never sold in blue, and [the DS9 propmaster] just painted them that color.

 

We have been looking for a long time to see if anyone still makes these, but couldn’t find any; the only ones we found were original white mugs from the 80s that were glazed blue — and those go for about $300 on eBay, which we thought was a bit much for a mug.

 

We are all huge DS9 fans here and were a bit bummed out that you couldn’t get those mugs, so eventually we took the plunge and decided to have them made.

While not a completely faithful replica — the CherryTree version arrives with the Quark’s Bar jingle printed on the bottom surface rather than the original rubberized bottom — it’s certainly more affordable then a vintage original mug, and much easier for Deep Space Nine fans to bring home.

The “IYKYK” Spaceport mug is available now for $30 at the CherryTree website.
