Βorbone, το "Μαγικό Συναίσθημα" της Νάπολης

Bringing the espresso culture of the Italian South to today.

In the world of espresso, the options are many and can confuse both the novice and the experienced coffee lover. But there are also some brands, whose name is a guarantee of authenticity, quality, taste and aroma – and Caffe Borbone from Naples belongs exactly to this category.



Brief history of Caffe Borbone

The relationship between espresso and Naples is not accidental. The "capital of espresso", as the city of the Italian South is often called, has a rich tradition in coffee and a distinct espresso culture, which has influenced the whole of Italy, both in the blending of the beans and in their roasting. ). Espresso for this port has always been a "magical feeling".

This magical feeling is what Borbone tries to pass on to today, since it was founded in 1997 by Massimo Renda. Taking advantage of years of experience from his family's small roastery, where he worked, Massimo first started a company that had coffee capsules in the Naples and Caserta offices, which quickly evolved into his own personal espresso brand, Borbone, named for which he secured permission from Prince Charles of Bourbon himself! The name was chosen to emphasize the city's connection with the past, as Naples was the first port in Italy, the second in Europe and the fifth in the world to be associated with the coffee trade.

Soon, the first blends, such as "Blue", "Red" and "Gold" begin to win the hearts of Neapolitans - and soon, the "classic" blends are accompanied by new options, sometimes traditional and sometimes more modern, and the rest, as they say, is history.
