Lavazza: Torino Espresso, Four Generations Since 1895

From the morning cappuccino to the after-dinner espresso, coffee plays a major role in Italian culture. Lavazza is a family-run Italian coffee company that sources the highest quality beans from sustainable farms. At Eataly, it is the caffè italiano we are proud to offer.

Luigi Lavazza and a grocery store in Torino

The story goes back more than 120 years. In 1895, the tenacious and intuitive Luigi Lavazza acquired a small grocery store in the heart of old Torino and discovered a flair for coffee. Over generations, he and his family mastered the art and science of coffee. Today the company is run by the fourth generation, and Lavazza is the symbol of Italian espresso worldwide.

From farm to cup

Every step of the coffee-making process is carefully taken. When the beans reach the Lavazza facilities, professional coffee tasters pair them to create blends. The blends are then roasted to perfection and ground fine, medium or coarse.

Caring for the earth

Lavazza follows the philosophy of its founder: caring for the earth. The company respects the economic, social, environmental and cultural assets of the countries where it operates. Over the years, those efforts have led to concrete actions that protect people and place at every stage of the production chain — from planting and harvesting to distribution and even consumption.

The result is a "green" coffee that tastes better — and is better for the world.
