The decision to establish a new association comes from the desire to reinforce and promote the already existing Coffee Museum, that since 2001 gathered and filed numerous items plus a large collection of books related to coffee.

The goal of aMDC is that of expanding intercultural activities and empowering the several partnerships with similar European institutions (Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, Hungary, Holland, Belgium, Cyprus).

Our President stressed out the decision to place the headquarter in Triest for its centuries-old tradition and the many historical cafés witnessing the ritual drinking.
Triest was an emporium already at the end of 1600 and stimulated the opening of the first shops in Europe. With the time, people employed in manufacturing and selling the product grew in great number, and so did their skill.

Associazione Museo del Caffè therefore wishes to value the cultural aspects and excellence of such a branched industry: a solid scientific and economical market presence that involved artists, men of letters, statesmen and, inevitably, tradesmen, all exchanging views in coffee houses that are still here today.
