When a kettle boils, some of the water inside goes from the liquid state to the gaseous state and rises because it's hot. What you see on your cupboard is called condensation which happens when a gas is cooled, such as steam (gaseous water), and goes back to the liquid state, hence why you have liquid water up there.

How does a Crofton Electric Water Kettle work?
There is a heating element in the kettle. As the water boils, the inner temperature of the kettle rises. Once the boiling temperature is reached, a small thermostat is triggered which turns the kettle off, so as to not boil continually. This thermostat works optimally with the lid on the kettle fully closed, if the lid is not fully closed, it does not switch the kettle off as quickly.

What ones hotter a cup of tea or water from the kettle?
If the water in the cup came from the kettle, it will be cooler than the water that remains in the kettle. Since the water in the cup is more exposed to the air than the kettle it will lose heat to evaporation more quickly than the water in the kettle will. The cup will also conduct heat way from the water until the water and the cup are the same temperature, whereas the kettle is already as hot as the water it contains.
