At the bar

All the secrets of real Neapolitan espresso, because coffee is an art

Passalacqua’s love for coffee does not stop at roasting but goes all the way to the bar. Drawing coffee on an espresso machine is, in fact, an art, where everything must be treated with the utmost care. The “tazzulella ‘e cafè”, a true Neapolitan tradition, requires not only great love of coffee but also an extraordinary skill that cannot be improvised. That is why we train our baristas on the secrets of preparing the real Neapolitan espresso. Only through careful and thorough training can you recognise the characteristics of the best coffee, and therefore extract the best.

If you also want to become a barista with a double R, follow the Passalacqua course “BARRISTA”. For professionals and/or coffee enthusiasts, Passalacqua explains the secrets to: recognise good coffee, work with the espresso machine, and taste it, with the team at its training centre, in the course of a day’s workshop with a limited number of up to 10 participants.
