MANIKO, the symbol of a contemporary coffee experience

Francesco Sanapo, winner of the BEST ITALIAN BARISTA award for several years, is the founder of Ditta Artigianale, a unique, prestigious establishment situated in the historic heart of Florence.
With Italian speciality coffee, Ditta Artigianale is the chosen location for introducing Club House’s innovative MANIKO line to specialists and coffee lovers.

This union is the result of a close affinity of goals and sensitivity towards the evolving world of coffee – a combination of technique, passion and professionalism.
Ditta Artigianale is set in a magical place that started life as a monastery in 1300, and is now a “new coffee experience” in the words of its founder. In other words specialty coffee available to the public and Italian expertise designed to provide aspiring baristas all over the world with the best training. The attention to detail and a focus on every aspect related to savouring coffee mean that MANIKO is an excellent tool for a pure and authentic approach to coffee.

MANIKO can provide an optimal and revolutionary taste experience thanks to unique design and technology features.

The absence of a handle enables the cup to be cradled in the palm of your hand, transmitting the warmth of the drink and facilitating more intense, extensive contact. The double porcelain wall with a cavity keeps your coffee at the right temperature, ensuring a comfortable grip thanks to the external wall staying at a pleasantly lower temperature.
The internal shape has also been designed to preserve the coffee’s organoleptic characteristics, and the width of the diameter makes it possible to savour the aroma.

This new, technically perfect shape is available in numerous variations and finishes, serving one of the most sophisticated ambassadors of Italian tradition.
