General information
- Short Summary
- Apulia-based artisanal coffee company specializing in the production of premium blends and single-origin coffees, crafted from carefully selected beans and traditional roasting methods, is currently seeking distribution partners within the European Union.
- Full Description
-
This family-run specialty coffee roastery and café, based in Bari, Puglia, was founded in 1997 as the first micro-roastery in the city. Today, it is a leader in high-quality, traceable coffee. With a commitment to selecting the finest beans from renowned coffee-growing regions, the company roasts them in-house to ensure maximum freshness and flavor integrity.
Their signature blends include a popular local-inspired variety, along with international selections from countries like Brazil, Burundi, and Ethiopia. In addition, the company offers a rotating selection of single-origin coffees that showcase the diversity of global coffee terroirs, prepared using methods such as espresso, V60, Aeropress, cold brew, and syphon, all crafted with cutting-edge equipment like the Slayer Steam LP machine.
Alongside their coffee, the roastery also features an in-house bakery that offers artisanal pastries, sandwiches, and light meals, perfectly paired with their beverages. For those who prefer brewing at home, a retail line of whole bean or ground specialty coffees is available.
The company places a strong emphasis on quality, sustainability, and coffee education, maintaining direct relationships with producers and ensuring transparent sourcing. With dual locations in Bari, including a modern bakery café in the city's shopping district, it has become a cherished part of the local coffee scene.
Ranked among the top five coffee bars in Italy by Bargiornale in 2024 and awarded "Due Chicchi e Due Tazzine" in the Gambero Rosso guide, the company is now seeking distribution partners across Europe, particularly in Germany, Spain, France, Greece, and Switzerland, to bring its Southern Italian coffee culture to a wider audience. - Advantages and Innovations
