Our coffee
Authentic, quality coffee since forever.
Our supply chain
Our supply chain is responsible from the bean to the cup thanks to our involvement in the Olam Food Ingredients AtSource programme, which guarantees:
In 2022, approximately 10% of the coffee sold by Caffè Borbone came from the ofi “AtSource Verified” supply chain. Considering all traders with similar certification schemes with whom the company does business, purchases of coffee from certified batches accounted for 45% of total supplies in 2024 with the aim of reaching at least 80% by 2026.
Our processing methods
The coffee is roasted using the traditional method. The 650 °C temperature, coupled with the action of a rotating metal “drum roaster”, makes it possible to evenly cook the beans and bring out the coffee’s full range of aromatic qualities.
Our packaging techniques
That authentic fresh roasted flavour, also at home.
The freshly roasted coffee is immediately ground and then packaged in a protective atmosphere in individual servings to preserve the freshness of the raw material and the organoleptic qualities of the coffee in conditions of maximum hygiene and safety. The oxygen-free packaging of each individual serving of coffee prevents the volatilisation of the aromas, protecting and preserving the fragrance of freshly roasted coffee for longer.
