A real coffee experience with De Gustibus Tours!
In this new tour on request we will accompany you to discover one of the most iconic and famous products of Italian food and wine. Which however is not Italian, or rather, the main ingredient with which it is produced is not of Italian origin. But then where does it come from? And how is this widespread but little-known fruit produced? And how is it best to taste it? What foods can we pair it with?
Well, if you too are crazy about coffee like us, this is the tour you can’t miss…
Visiting the Espresso Coffee Academy, absolute excellence created inside the old La Marzocco factory (another local excellence, little known even by the Florentines themselves!) will change your vision of coffee forever…
From Accademia del Caffè Espresso website: “The journey through Accademia’s Museum is the first contact with the amazing world of espresso coffee.
The visitor walks through the historical building, accompanied by specialized guides on the discovery of the main elements contributing to the creation of espresso coffee, each in its own unique way.
History, technology, and biology mingle in a spectacular, interdisciplinary narrative that involves all the senses.”
