I would speculate its the "covered" part of that thats the biggest factor. At home I use a coffee press and the coffee in the glass press is hot MUCH longer than in my cup. I can warm up the cup from the press for a surprisingly long time after the coffee in the cup has gone cold. I don't believe the glass of the press has any better insulating properties than the ceramic of my mug but the press is covered.

Much longer than coffee in an uncovered ceramic mug or even most automobile-style "travel" mugs. Adjust your expectations accordingly.
