Did you know: this is the Victora Arduino VA388 Black Eagle which is the official espresso machine for the World Barista Championship [2015-2017]. It has been designed for baristas by world Barista Champions! Thanks to the very generous support of Zuccarini Importing Co. Ltd. we are able to have four of these beauties at our Canadian Coffee Championships. They are currently in Edmonton for the West Qualifiers this weekend and will be making their way to #Toronto for the East ...Qualifiers on August 20th. After Toronto, these machines will be packed up again and sent all the way to Vancouver for Nationals in the fall! ............ FYI: Giacomo Zuccarini was the very first importer of commercial and home Espresso machines in Canada dating back to 1954. His daughter Jackie Z. runs the company today. ..........
