It's All About Coffee (#)
„The inspiration for Starbucks came to Howard Schultz during a visit to Italy, where he first experienced Europe's cafe culture. Back in Seattle, Schultz's initial venture before taking over Starbucks in 1987 was a joint called Il Giornale.“

CoffeeKid - Machines, Beans and Cups... again
„I've been on a hunt for Illy cups normally only sold in Italy or other parts of Europe, and Zoxx was my hookup. I placed an order for the No Water, No Coffee cup set which I think is one of the best looking regular 6 cup sets to come along in some time. I also ordered some of the very nifty Matteo Thun designed cups, Koziol Aroma handleless cups .“

„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."“

„Recognizing coffee as a hot item, visiting merchants of Venice carried their first cargo from Constantinople to Italy in 1615; by 1750 it could be found throughout most of western Europe. So, too, could that fraternal lodge of the Levant—the coffeehouse.“

„Allison Reed, who brews coffee from Seattle Coffee Co. at her independent cafe, has received three phones calls in the past month from local roasters urging her to change brands. Once Starbucks acquires Seattle Coffee Co., the callers said, she'll have to buy beans from the chain, which has several cafes near her own.“
