The New Palermo Marina Yachting: A Mega Project of Urban Regeneration
The recent news about the opening of the Marina Yachting in Palermo has brought a wave of excitement to the city. This new infrastructure not only reconnects the people of Palermo with the sea but also revitalizes the urban landscape with a stunning regeneration project. With a significant investment of 30 million, the Marina Yachting boasts a range of amenities including a spa, an amphitheater, a conference center, and even Italy’s largest musical fountain.
One of the highlights of the Marina Yachting is the array of dining options available. From renowned restaurants to quaint cafes, there is something for every palate. Among the establishments set to open is Morettino Coffee Lab, a specialty coffee roastery that has been making waves in the coffee scene.
Morettino Coffee Lab traces its roots back to the 1920s when Angelo Morettino ran a family-owned spice and colonial shop in San Lorenzo ai Colli, Palermo. Over the years, the business evolved into a full-fledged coffee roastery, gaining popularity among coffee connoisseurs and high society. In the 1990s, the company underwent a transformation with a move to a modern production facility, paving the way for international expansion.
Today, Morettino Coffee Lab stands as a testament to the fourth generation’s commitment to innovation and quality. The lab specializes in roasting small batches of premium high-altitude coffees using eco-friendly hot air roasters, resulting in exquisite single-origin and blended specialty coffees. Beyond roasting, Morettino Coffee Lab has also ventured into the realm of coffee culture, exploring new roasting profiles and consumption experiences.
With the opening of the first Morettino Coffee Lab cafe at the Marina Yachting, coffee enthusiasts can look forward to a unique and sustainable coffee experience. Embracing a blend of international influences and Mediterranean charm, the cafe aims to elevate coffee consumption into a ritualistic and sensory journey. From carefully crafted espressos to micro-lot Arabica beans roasted on-site, Morettino Coffee Lab promises a coffee experience that transcends the ordinary.
As a coffee aficionado, I can’t wait to visit Morettino Coffee Lab at the Marina Yachting and indulge in their specialty coffees. While I have a soft spot for Milagrosa Single Estate coffee from Jerico, Colombia, I’m excited to explore the flavors and aromas of Morettino’s offerings. If you’re in Palermo, be sure to stop by Morettino Coffee Lab for a coffee experience like no other.
