Our History
When Vince Izzo arrived in Calgary from Pietramelara, Italy in 1968, a good espresso was difficult to find here. There were only a handful of commercial espresso machines in restaurants around Calgary and most home brewers were using small, stove-top models. The coffee itself came pre-ground in tins from Italy, with names like Medaglia D’Oro and Lavazza.
Vince saw a caffeine-deprived opportunity and in 1974 he started a business importing Italian espresso machines. He worked tirelessly with experienced coffee importers developing his own proprietary blend of beans and labelling them with his Cappuccino King brand. Since then, Cappuccino King has been on a quest to convert Canadians to proper Italian espresso, one crema-topped demitasse at a time.
Today, Vince’s son Peter Izzo continues to provide customers with the highest quality and value of service and sales while remaining true to the amazing level of service that connoisseurs have grown to expect from the Cappuccino King.
In addition to custom roasted espresso beans, Cappuccino King is proud to offer a curated selection of consumer and commercial espresso machines as well as a wide array of flavoured syrups and coffee-making accessories.
Check us out and see why Cappuccino King has grown to be Calgary’s ultimate destination for the latest in all things coffee.
