Coffee lovers now have a new reason to visit Europe, thanks to the grand opening of the Lavazza Museum in Turin, Italy. Packed with history, exhibits, and of course, coffee, the museum is a mecca for java fans.
The new Lavazza Museum is a futuristic museum that tells the story of the fourth largest coffee company in the world. Upon entering, guests are given a cup of espresso and then led through five different rooms, each with a unique coffee theme. Visitors will learn about how the coffee is made, it's history, the story behind the Lavazza brand, and even an immersive tour of how coffee goes from bean to cup. To top it off, guests can taste one classic drink of their choice, such as an espresso, drip coffee, or specialty drink.
