What You Don't Know About Doppio
Espresso, the foundation of doppio (meaning double), emerged in Italy during the late 19th century, thanks to the invention of the espresso machine by
Angelo Moriondo in 1884. As espresso machines evolved, so did the popularity of doppio. The early 20th century saw the rise of espresso bars across Italy,
where skilled baristas crafted concentrated shots of coffee, including the potent doppio. This drink became a symbol of Italian coffee expertise,
embodying the art of extracting the perfect espresso shot. Doppio is Italian for a Double Shot of Espresso
