Caffino

The first Caffino opened in 1993 in Napa, California. This pioneering concept of offering premium quality espresso beverages to customers in the convenience of their cars was an immediate success and paved the way for 26 additional espresso bars, 20 of which are franchised.

We use skillful evaluation in the careful selection of our coffee beans, which is critical to quality, by selecting beans from the top 5% of the world’s coffee crop. Our Arabican Specialty Grade Class 1 beans are then blended by coffee guru Kenneth Davids using coffee skills and practices that are part tradition and part innovation achieved through 31 years of experience.

We roast our beans using a proprietary, state-of-the-art coffee roasting system that produces outstanding quality flavor and delivers the freshest coffee possible! Our goal is to roast body into the coffee best suited to its unique origin, acidity, and natural flavor—giving our coffee unequaled deepness. In essence, Caffino is redefining coffee freshness by the hour, one pound-at-a-time.

Caffino's growth has been facilitated by a passion for quality in every aspect of the operation. Literally, millions of dollars have been invested to develop the concept: from product formulations, to production methodology and ergonomics to site development criteria.

Caffino's management systems and training programs are unparalleled in the industry in their thoroughness and ability to facilitate fast customer transactions with high courtesy standards and superior product quality.
