The La Marzocco Cafe<\/a>\u2014the Sprudgie Award winning<\/a> Seattle coffee shop and showroom inside the KEXP Studios<\/a>\u2014has announced their Year Three Roasters in Residence, and there\u2019s a pretty signficant international bent to this year\u2019s lineup.<\/p>\n

Like with previous years, each roaster gets to takeover the cafe for a month; this isn\u2019t just a guest roaster spot, mind you, this is a wholesale change. Roasters decide the drink menu, bar design, flow, etc., in order to provide patrons a cafe experience that most resembles that of the roaster\u2019s home shop.<\/p>\n

For Year Three\u2014though really it is Year Three and Four-ish, running from May 2018 through February 2020\u2014the La Marzocco Cafe has tapped seven international roasters of the 20 total to inhabit the KEXP coffee shop. The international list includes:\u00a0Allpress Espresso<\/a>\u00a0(Auckland, New Zealand),\u00a0Seesaw Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Shanghai, China), Bonanza Coffee Roasters<\/a>\u00a0(Berlin, Germany),\u00a0Onibus Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Tokyo, Japan), Ditta Artiginale<\/a>\u00a0(Florence, Italy), The Coffee Collective<\/a>\u00a0(Copenhagen, Denmark), and\u00a0Five Elephant<\/a>\u00a0(Berlin, Germany).<\/p>\n

For US-based roasters, La Marzocco has selected:\u00a0Cuv\u00e9e Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Austin,TX),\u00a0La Colombe Coffee Roasters<\/a>\u00a0(Philadelphia, PA),\u00a0Kuma Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Seattle, WA),\u00a0Metric Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Chicago, IL),\u00a0Dapper and Wise<\/a>\u00a0(Portland, OR),\u00a0Equator Coffees & Teas<\/a>\u00a0(San Rafael, CA),\u00a0Port of Mokha<\/a> (Oakland, CA),\u00a04th Dimension Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Durham, NC),\u00a0Elixr Coffee<\/a>\u00a0(Philadelphia, PA),\u00a0\u00a0Onda Origins<\/a>\u00a0(Seattle, WA),\u00a0\u00a0Linea Caffe<\/a>\u00a0(San Francisco, CA),\u00a0Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters<\/a>\u00a0(Lakewood, CO) and Verve Coffee Roasters<\/a>\u00a0(Santa Cruz, CA). That last two are my mom\u2019s favorite coffee roasters, just in case you thought your parents’ coffee game was better than my mom\u2019s. It isn\u2019t. Hi Mom!<\/p>\n

It all kicks off with next month with Cuv\u00e9e Coffee. Will they bring with them their assembly-line style of drink ordering (featured here<\/a> in Sprudge) or will Cuv\u00e9e owner Mike McKim stand in front of the cafe slinging cans of nitro cold brew to passersby (a thing he has been known to do)? Who knows. Maybe both. That’s the fun of the La Marzocco Cafe.
