produttori — Inazago · Lombardia
In Piazza Maggiore in Inazago, at the heart of the Lombard plain, the Vimercati family has been transforming origin beans since 1986: an artisan roasting workshop that has made quality coffee both its trade and its identity.
Selected lots from Brazil and Central America arrive on the workshop's counter: origins chosen to ensure balance, sweetness and consistency in the cup. Every batch of roasting begins with this careful selection of raw material, well before fire even enters the picture. The quality of the coffee is decided here, among sacks and green beans.
Roasting is a gesture that cannot be delegated: Arialdo Vimercati and his family have kept it in their own hands for forty years, with the continuity that sets a historic workshop apart from a simple retail outlet. It is about the timing of the reaction to heat, reading the colour, deciding the exact moment to stop the roast. A knowledge that cannot be measured in grams.
From the shelves of the shop on Piazza Maggiore, alongside coffee roasted on site, runs a range built up over the years: teas, beverages, sweet and savoury offerings from around the world. A stronghold of taste culture that Inazago has come to regard as its own point of reference, certified Eccellenza Italiana for its quality and its roots in the territory.
From the shop window on Piazza Maggiore, forty years of artisan roasting await anyone wishing to discover coffee as a craft and as a story.
