Italy is undoubtedly one of the world's Metropolises of Coffee - and of course, the birthplace of espresso.

The Caffé Cagliari origins: The Migration to Brazil and return to Modena
The history of Cagliari coffee begins in 1895 when the founder of the company, Ambrosio Cagliari, takes the road of immigration from Italy to Brazil in search of better luck. The Cagliari works as a laborer in coffee plantations in the country of Latin America, but his passion, the diligence and the coffee that magic carrries makes Cagliari a master in roasting and the blending in just a few years. Ambrosio decides to change his life again and returns to his hometown, Modena.
Having met well the secrets of coffee, the Ambrosio Cagliari opens his first roastery in the center of Modena in 1909. The quality of the blends is such that only two years later won the gold quality medal at the International Fair of Genoa. It is Cagliari's first important step towards recognition, but also a strong asset for the company, which aims to never reduce the quality of its blends. Caffé Cagliari grows rapidly, moves to bigger facilities and her espresso bar becomes a hangout for intellectuals and writers of the Italian Interwar.
