Caffé Vergnano is an Italian company with a long and prestigious history. Founded in 1882, when Domenico Vergnano, forefather of the present family, established his business opening a small grocery in the medieval city of Chieri situated at the foot of the hills surrounding Turin. The shop soon started to specialize in the roasting and sale of coffee, defining the Vergnano family's true vocation. A vocation nourished by courageous decisions, such as the purchase in the 30's of a coffee plantation Kenya, while in Italy business grew rapidly with the establishment of the first three warehouses in Turin, Alba, and Chierie. Arabica Coffee is the most prestigious type of coffee. Vergnano Arabica is a product with a delicate flavor and smooth aroma which is created by the low roasting of only the very best varieties of Arabica from Central and South America. The low roasting of Vergnano Arabica Espresso makes it perfectly balanced with a medium, rounded flavor and sweet aroma. A great blend also for the most demanding connoisseurs with a low caffeine content, ideal to be drunk in the evening. Packing in a protective atmosphere keeps it fresh and extends its life for many evenings to come. Comes in three varieties:

Fine Grind (ideal for espresso coffee makers)
Medium Grind (ideal for drip coffee makers)
Decaffeinated (in Fine Grind)

Comments about Caffe Vergnano 1882 Espresso:

I purchased some of this coffee at a market in Italy, to bring home, and am so glad to find a source in the U.S./online. This is the smoothest coffee I have ever tasted. Does not have a bitter aftertaste or acidic "palate" at all.
