Watch on YouTubeCherrybook summary of the video
This video provides a tour of the third Ditta Artigianale location in Florence, Italy. It highlights the roaster's history, their commitment to sourcing high-quality coffee beans directly from farmers, and their dedication to training baristas to a high standard.
Inside this video
From Gregor Brown:
“Francesco Sanapo and Patrick Hoffer began this coffee shop a decade ago. Back in 2013. Well, they first started roasting coffee beans, supplying coffee shops, then they opened up their first coffee shop.”
“Unlike many of the coffee shops that pride themselves on having Italian coffee, Ditta Artigianale, when the locals and tourists come in, they deliver.”

How Cherrybook Index is calculatedavg coverage 23% · limited data
Coverage is below 50%. Available roaster-level evidence comes from Reddit. Per-lot evidence from SCA grades, Coffee Review entries, and public on-shop product ratings is limited across the catalog. With limited signal, scores are also pulled toward a neutral 50 baseline by the Cherrybook Index methodology, so lots can read flatter than the actual cup quality differences between them. The average Cherrybook Index therefore leans more heavily on roaster-level reputation than per-lot quality.

Two live Reddit sources describe strongly positive Ditta Artigianale experiences. One commenter calls a visit in Florence fantastic. Another praises the Mamma Mia espresso blend for its dark chocolate and dark-fruit profile, clean finish, lack of bitterness or burnt flavor, and consistently forgiving extraction.

Off topic but ditta artigianale was fantastic on our visit last summer to Florence.
- r/espresso · 5↑ · A Shot in the Dark - does anyone know these beans?
In August, my daughter was treated to a trip (by another family) to Europe. While in Milan, she bought me some beans. Ditta Artigianale Mamma Mia Espresso Blend. Their cafés are primarily in Firenze and Milano. The beans were roasted around 3 weeks before she bought them with a BBD of January. OmFFFFFFggg. I made some.
