It was a clear, sunny day when we arrived in Italy. Firenze, or Florence is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Despite being a bustling tourist destination, we had the opportunity of visiting our partner, La Marzocco, in their beautiful hometown last month.
La Marzocco was born in the capital of Italy's Tuscany region, Florence, where it is famous for its Renaissance art, culture, rolling Fiesole hills, architecture and many more. Tracing its history back to 1927, La Marzocco was founded by the Bambi brothers, Giuseppe and Bruno Bambi. With such a rich history and presence, chances are you might have seen a La Marzocco machine in one of your neighbourhood cafes.

We first visited the new La Marzocco Factory in Scarperia, where they assemble the commercial and home line by hand. Yes, you heard that right. All of La Marzocco's espresso machines are hand-built by skilled craftsmen.

Crossing the sky bridge led us to their office, a huge space that can accommodate numerous sections all at once.
