Lavazza launches Tales of Italy: a range of modern Italian blends taking coffee drinkers on a journey across Italy

Lavazza, the global coffee brand whose history spans almost 130 years, is dedicated to providing high-quality coffee to the most sophisticated coffee-drinkers. Today, Lavazza is launching its latest collection of coffee beans, Tales of Italy, a range of premium quality blends inspired by “Italian coffee destinations”.

The Tales of Italy blends embody Lavazza’s Italian soul by drawing inspiration from three iconic cities – Milan, Venice, and Rome. Achieved thanks to Lavazza’s passion for excellence and commitment to innovation, the new collection perfectly balances Italianity, through nostalgic aromas and a long-lasting taste.

To create the all-new blends, Lavazza used a tailored approach, selecting the finest varieties of beans from across the world. This includes Washed Arabica from Central-South America, Natural Arabica from Brazil, and Washed Robusta from India and Indonesia.

Thanks to a combination of fermented Robusta and Cereja Appasita Brazilian Arabica, Tales of Italy delivers an exotic taste, with sweet vinous notes and the typical “Italian” body with touches of sweetness from honey.

As part of Lavazza’s dedicated foodservice approach, Lavazza will work with its partners to develop the right package tailored to different business needs. Lavazza.com
