La Marzocco is thrilled to announce and share with you the all-abouts of the new showroom opening of La Marzocco Turkey located at 34 Barbaros Bulvarı: here, the team held an outstanding party last Sunday for Istanbul’s coffee aficionados, pros, and all actors from the flourishing, local third-wave community.

A rich selection of fine coffees, beers, and Linea-Classic-grilled steaks was prepared and served; people gathered to network, delve into sensorial offerings, exchange ideas and enjoy some community-building time.

We are so honored about this event as not many could have imagined the extent to which the specialty coffee movement would spread throughout Istanbul, a multi-cultural, fast-paced metropolis housing more than sixty destinations, most of which are marked by our Florentine handmade espresso machine.

Speaking of professional grade espresso equipment, the Leva exhibit played an undisputed role in the happening, for which La Marzocco’s product improvement manager, Enrico Wurm, flew in from Italy to present a talk alongside longtime trusted partner&friend Ayşin Aydoğdu, storytelling the inspiration behind the making of this ultimate model.

The goal of this new flagship space is to “highlight the best Turkish roasters, making it a coffee destination in its own right.”
