Carasso

In Geneva, the story of coffee has been told since 1866 through Cafés Carasso, the city’s iconic roaster.

This family-run house preserves an artisanal savoir-faire, where each coffee is slowly roasted to reveal the richness of its aromas.

In their boutiques on Cours de Rive and Rue de Grenus 10, 1204 Genève, travelers can explore a selection of specialty coffees, single origins, blends, as well as organic and fair trade varieties.

Carasso also offers innovative capsules, 100% compostable and Fairtrade-certified, perfect for combining pleasure with sustainability.

Design lovers will find a wide range of espresso machines, grinders, filters, cups, and accessories from brands like Hario, Siemens, and Bialetti.

Each customer can request customized packaging or grinding, or even subscribe to receive new discoveries on a regular basis.

To take the experience further, Carasso also offers barista and latte art workshops — a unique opportunity to learn while traveling.

This immersive approach appeals as much to Genevans as to visitors in search of an authentic experience.

Balancing heritage, quality, and innovation, this house embodies Swiss artisanal excellence.
