 Our motto at Espresso Vivace is "una bella tazza di caffe." In Italian this means a beautiful cup of coffee, and it means a great deal
to us at Vivace. "Espresso Vivace" translates loosely as great enthusiasm, and excitement about the new world coffee: caffe espresso.
Vivace is a partnership developed in 1988 by David Schomer and Geneva Sullivan. Vivace has created an espresso preparation method based on precise scientific methodology, but inspired by the beauty in the coffee itself. The goal of the company is to research, develop, and promote caffe espresso as a culinary art.
After fifteen years of research on all aspects of espresso preparation, a specialized method and roasting process has been developed at Vivace in the singular pursuit of perfect espresso. Our Northern Italian inspired espresso blends are considered by many experts to posses the sweetest flavor and most abundant crema of any coffee out there. (see reviews)
Our research has also led to a book Espresso Coffee: Professional Techniques and two videos Caffe Latte Art and Techniques of the Barista. This training material is authored by David Schomer, and is distributed world wide to dedicated baristas, coffee roasters and espresso bar owners. David Schomer's Professional Espresso Training Series is based on sixteen years of hands on research into each factor that affects the creation of caffe espresso. The Professional Espresso Training Series provides the espresso bar owner all the information needed to produce a beautiful, and sweet caffe espresso.
