The Alfredo cafè in Cologne has won the Gastro Award 2010. This bar in downtown Cologne is a benchmark for all the coffee lovers and is attended by, of course, many Germans, but also by all those Italians who seek the quality of the Italian espresso, like home.
The Gastro Award is assigned by a jury of experts which uses a series of parameters, for example, service and quality, of course!
Reading the reasons of this year’s award, the owner of the Alfredo bar, Mr. Carturan, has been recognized for the very high quality of his bar and to the great importance he gives to his clients.
Furthermore, he has been rewarded for the attention of every detail, even in coffee.
In fact, for the espresso and cappuccino, the Alfredo bar uses a Mokaflor 80 Arabica and 20 Robusta blend, with a high percentage of citrus and spicy aromas of the Ethiopian coffees (Sidamo and Limu) which are grown in the shade. This type of cultivation allows a slower ripeness and an enrichment of the perfume thanks to the spice trees next to which the coffee plants are grown.
And to meet Mr. Carturan and his staff, take a look at the videos of the award!
