Roaster Emanuele Bizzarri has always had coffee in his blood - from his grandfather Ornello to his father Umberto. The Arco Etrusco in our logo is a landmark of the Umbrian city. But the family's roots in roasting go back to the 1940's, when Ornello Bizzarri built his roastery in Perugia, Italy. We use up to 15 different varietals, with the bulk coming from Central America, South America, and Africa.Ĭaffè Umbria is a full-service, wholesale coffee roaster based in Seattle, Washington. Since a single coffee bean cannot possess the complexity necessary for great espresso, we select the best varietals from each coffee growing country that have the best profiles to produce each of the blends of Caffè Umbria.
Because of these variations, the roaster must be both artist and scientist to ensure quality and consistency. Each of these areas have wide variations in plant types, climate, harvest periods and transportation, all of which contribute to the multiple grades and quality of the beans produced. There are around 80 coffee growing countries in the world, spread across four continents, between the Tropic of Cancer to the north and the Tropic of Capricorn to the South. Blending different types of coffee from various parts of the world is a passionate Italian tradition.Ī well-balanced premium blend is made by combining various amounts of diverse varietals from numerous origins, and then roasting them to bring out the best of their individual characteristics.
