There are many beautiful Italian cities with tradition such as Rome, Venice, Milan and Turin. Yet, further South there is a city on the slopes of Vesuvius where time apparently stood still, i.e. Naples. People of Naples love coffee or better espresso. Coffee culture and their daily espresso are as much part of Neapolitan culture as being jolly, laid-back and passionate. Neapolitans are very critical with it for espresso is not espresso. There are many kinds, ways of preparing and drinking it. Traditionally Espresso Corto with little water and much coffee and Espresso Lungo with a little more water are the favorites of the Neapolitans which does not mean that they do not fancy Caffe Latte or Caffe Macchiato; they just do not like them that much. On top of that Neapolitans who really enjoy life swear by their Caffe Kimbo, a coffee roaster based in Naples. Caffe Kimbo is the company for Neapolitans that represents their coffee culture.
Kimbo… you won't forget it.
