LAVAZZA'S COFFEE LIQUEUR: A DELICIOUS RECIPE

With its intense aroma and strong taste, the coffee liqueur is one of the most beloved liqueurs in the world.

Its origins date back to the unification of Italy, which took place in the 1860s. Thanks to the intuition of Ugo Borghetti, the Italian owner of Caffè Sport, this winning combination of alcohol and coffee was created and served for the first time to passengers during the inauguration of a railway line.

To prepare this delicious recipe, we suggest using blends such as Qualità Rossa. A balanced and full-bodied espresso, representative of Italy’s red passion, born from the union of a natural Brazilian Arabica and Robusta.
