The mayor of Murcia, José Ballesta, together with the Minister of Tourism, Youth and Sports, María Cristina Sánchez, presented this morning Café Capital, a new product that was born expressly on the occasion of the appointment of Murcia as the Spanish Capital of Gastronomy 2020, a 'blend' - a mixture - 100% Arabic, balanced, creamy and full-bodied, in which, when served in a cup, notes of caramel, vanilla and butter can be appreciated.
“Café Capital is a flavor that emerged as a tribute to our Gastronomic Capital, a flavor that was born exclusively to celebrate this appointment,” said José Ballesta, who added that “it is an exquisite and healthy product that was present at FITUR 2020, where it was announced throughout Spain, and that will be present throughout the programming of Murcia Spanish Capital of Gastronomy ”.
Specifically, Café Capital is a product created by Sazillo Tea & Coffee, which is already available in the restaurants and bars that collaborate with this Murcia brand.
The event was attended by the manager of Salzillo Tea & Coffee, José Gomariz.
