Italian Coffee Beans, LE PIANTAGIONI DEL CAFFE

Le Piantagioni Del Caffè is a family-run company spanning four generations since its creation in 1994. The Italian brand has made a lasting impression by acting as a true pioneer, building direct relationships with small-scale producers and introducing the concept of “origin” in specialty coffee.

It has also stood out by making specialty coffee more accessible, with a more relaxed and playful approach. Its “Specialty People Blends” range is colourful, engaging, and easy to explore for both coffee enthusiasts and newcomers alike. All coffees are crafted from single-origin beans, sometimes blended to create unique profiles, delivering transparency and exceptional quality in every cup.

To ensure a consistently high-quality tasting experience, the brand has developed its own protocol to analyse and score coffees after roasting. Their goal is to offer coffees suited to Specialty Coffee, supported by a dedicated, cutting-edge software. While not a universal standard, this system allows them to maintain strict quality control, especially for espresso.
