Grand Cru India

An Italian institution since 1919, Filicori Zecchini is a Bologna-based roastery that's been dialing in espresso for over a century. Founded by Aldo Filicori and Luigi Zecchini, now run by the third generation (Luca, Costanza, and Luigi Jr.), they bridge old-school Italian tradition with modern sustainability—think Fairtrade, organic certifications, and recyclable packaging. Their range runs from classic espresso blends and single origins to specialty selections, all available as whole beans, ground, or in capsules for every major system. They offer a subscription so you never run out, plus a Coffee School if you want to master your Moka pot. They ship across Europe and the US. Serious about crema, clear about their sources, and unapologetically Italian.
