Experience Meets Innovation
In 1979 the Segafredo family, well-known for their time-honoured tradition in this sector, established the Essse Caffè brand in Bologna.
It was no accident that Essse was spelled with a triple S, with the three S’s standing for “Scienza, Sapienza, Specializzazione” (Science, Knowledge, Specialisation), the three values that sum up the company’s philosophy, founded on experience and committed to innovation, and expressed through the consistency of the coffee blends and a constant quest for the best organoleptic properties.
