Colombia: El Vergel Bourbon Sidra Mosto

Emanuele Tomassi built his micro roastery as a natural extension of Caos, his coffee bar in Aprilia south of Rome, after a chance meeting with Klaus Thomsen, World Barista Champion and co founder of Coffee Collective, during a period living in Denmark in 2009 ignited a passion for specialty coffee that redirected his career. The roastery, which Emanuele describes as his "games room" in the back of the bar, uses technology to manage the roasting curve and produces specialty coffee for both espresso and filter using omni roast profiles. Emanuele won the Italian Coffee Roasting Championship in 2018 and again in 2024, establishing himself as one of the most decorated competition roasters in the country, and the operation is now a father and son affair. Tomassi Coffee represented Italy at Roast Masters Milan 2019 alongside barista Jorge Albarracin Quintero, and provides descriptive estate information for every coffee it sells, emphasizing the story and terroir behind each origin. The micro roastery continues to roast from Aprilia with the same curiosity driven philosophy that a Danish encounter planted more than fifteen years ago.
