The history of the Trinci roasting begins in Florence in 1939 with the artisan workshop of Ercole, when coffee was a drink for the few and no one could imagine the enormous diffusion it was intended for.
The need for a larger space forces Ercole Trinci to move the business to the new headquarters in Agliana, in the province of Pistoia. In 1971 Andrea joined his father acquiring all the secrets from him.
His journey begins here. The family tradition was then reinterpreted with an eye always attentive to innovation. Years of great satisfaction followed. Its coffee has been exported to different cities of Europe and it has been served to the heads of state present at the G8 too.
After his father’s retirement, Andrea Trinci opens his new artisan workshop in 2003 in Cascine di Buti, a small town in the Pisan province.
Thus he returns to be the “tailor” of his coffee tailored to customers, managing to enhance each batch of coffee, interpreting the potential of a coffee even before roasting and extrapolating its intrinsic qualities, through a “sweet roasting” with wood cooking.
In those same years, Andrea Trinci began a cooperation with Slow Food. Bound to the movement since 1988, Andrea was involved in a new project that granted him great satisfaction immediately: teaching to roast the Huehuetenango coffee (Guatemalan, Slow Food Presidium) to a few guests of Le Vallette prison in Turin.
Experience in the art of artisan coffee roasting is the first indispensable value in Trinci’s production philosophy.
It is with the Fair-Trade Brand that Trinci certifies its commitment to defend the rights, especially in developing countries, of those who grow and harvest coffee.
Along with the Fair-Trade, Andrea also created two new Organic blends to promote forest preservation and to participate in a healthy ecosystem, besides offering some wholesome and healthful products.
After completing his university studies in mathematics, in 2020 Tobia Trinci joins the company bringing freshness and dynamism. Alongside his father, he dedicated himself to administrative and commercial management with an eye always attentive to numbers.
