Caffe Vergnano 1882

Specialties

Caffe Vergnano 1882 roast every variety of coffee bean separately with fine precision before they combine them together to make their exclusive coffee blends.

Quite simply, Caffe Vergnano take more care when making their blends compared with other well known coffee makers. In fact their slow roasting process lasts four times longer than other coffees meaning that the coffee beans have a more mellow, smooth taste.

History

Established in 1882.

The Caffè Vergnano began in 1882, when Domenico Vergnano, grandfather of the current owners, started the first commercial activities by opening a small grocery store in the village of Chieri, at the foot of the hills which surround Torino. The shop specialized in the roasting and sale of coffee beans, thereby defining the inherent vocation of the Vergnano family.

The 1930s, with the acquisition of a coffee producing farm in Kenya and the opening of 3 warehouses in Italy located in Torino, Alba and Chieri.

But not until the 1970s, with the construction of the factory in Santena, would Caffè Vergnano be regarded as one of the most prestigious coffee roasters in Italy.

While the company continued to grow it encountered further success in 1986, thanks to the merger with the historic Casa del Caffè of Torino, a high-​quality market leader in the bar/​coffee shop sector of Piemonte which now serves more than 2000 clients throughout the region.
