CoffeeGeek - Espresso Cups Review - Vivace Tognana Espresso Cups (#)
„Then comes the hate part: after spending about 5 months unsuccessfully (as in, they never respond to faxes, phone calls, or email) trying to contact the company in Italy to get samples and find out pricing, I gave up. Still, the Tognana cup in many ways is the epitome of what a quality espresso cup should be.“

„Interestingly enough, 3 of the 4 cups come from Germany, where the 4th comes from Italy. You'd expect all great espresso cups come from Italy, but during the course of research for this review, I discovered that Germany is a veritable hotbed of porcelain and ceramic makers!“

„In this rain-soaked city about as far as you can get from Italy in the continental United States, the seeds of a coffee revolution were planted. Howard Schultz made his now-legendary visit to the espresso bars of Milan in 1983 and convinced the founders of Starbucks to test his new coffee bar concept in downtown Seattle the following year. Soon after, Mauro Cipolla began roasting his Neapolitan-inspired Caffe D'arte blends; Umberto Bizzarri brought his family's Perugia roots to Torrefazione Italia in 1986; and in 1988, David Schomer opened Espresso Vivace - all in the city eventually dubbed "Latte Land."“

„Their 100 % Arabica: known in Italy as "Selezione Speciale", is one of the finest and most delicate coffees on the market. It is truly a connoisseurs blend, using 4 diferent origins and carefully prepared by a team of certified "assagiatori" - Italian coffee tasters.“

„In November 2004 I met two people at a barista competition and they had been to Italy and even visited the LaMarzocco factory. They told me that a typical Italian espresso tastes like a good double espresso from the Torrefazione coffee house chain in the USA. To me that means that Italian espressos are not good because the best espresso from Torrefazione is bad compared to the best of Barefoot, Stumptown, Vivace, Zoka, Hines, Vita etc. (Note: these folks were taking about the 2004 Torrefazione).“

„I requested Italy Outlet they send a power button and asked about payment of repairs (Adesso claimed I had to pay the repair in spite of a Europe wide warranty). I never got an answer on the last question, after a few more emails I did get information that a power button was ordered from Gaggia.“
