The gift of caffeine just might be the best gift of all. Just ask the White House press corps, who recently received a high-tech espresso machine from Tom Hanks as a gift. It arrived with a personal, encouraging note from the actor, reading: "Keep up the good fight for truth, justice, and the American way. Especially for the truth part."

But Hanks didn't send the reporters just any old espresso machine. He sent them the Pasquini Livia G4, a commercial-grade unit that retails for $1,740. The Italian semiautomatic machine comes equipped with several fancy features, including a heat exchanger system that allows you to brew espresso and steam milk simultaneously, a commercial-size portafilter for optimal espresso flavor, and large cup warmers to get your mug hot and ready for its beverage. It also removes the complications from brewing an espresso or cappuccino: The Livia G4 works with simply the push of a button, meaning you get the perfect cup of coffee every time.

This is the third time that Hanks has gifted the White House press corps with a brand-new espresso machine, after he noticed they lacked one in 2004. He reportedly replaced it in 2010 when he noticed a bit of wear and tear. "You know, you're supposed to clean this after every use," the actor said at the time. The reporters are quite thankful for their sleek java upgrade that seems to come like clockwork every 6 years.

Jealous? Don't be: You can get your own here. It just won't come with a personal note from Tom.
