Passalacqua
Passalacqua's story began in 1948, amidst the post-war reconstruction efforts in Italy. Seeking to provide for his family, Samuele Passalacqua, the company's founder, embarked on a new venture. With an old 5 kg coffee roaster and unwavering determination, he laid the foundation for a thriving coffee legacy.
The Passalacqua family embodies the spirit of their company. Their Neapolitan roots are evident not only in their coffee but also in their work ethic. Rigor, loyalty, and a dedication to community are paramount values, fostering a vibrant working environment. The iconic Passalacqua Indian logo, born from a heartwarming encounter with a young boy visiting the factory, serves as a constant reminder of their humble beginnings and commitment to genuine hospitality.
In the 1960s, renowned writer Mario Soldati, after savoring a cup of Passalacqua coffee at the historic Mexico bar in Naples, declared it "the best coffee in Italy." This accolade serves as a testament to Passalacqua's unwavering dedication to preserving the authentic Neapolitan coffee tradition.
Passalacqua remains true to the time-honored methods of Neapolitan coffee making. They utilize classic Neapolitan machines, upholding the techniques cherished by generations of their family. This dedication ensures every cup embodies not just exceptional taste, but also a rich history and a passion for coffee excellence. Whether you enjoy an iced coffee or a traditional espresso, Passalacqua will make the perfect cup.
