We take off with taste - 1° voyage of discovery

​The excellence of the territory - Our passion for coffee

For several years, Engel & Völkers Padua has been a reference point in the brokerage of excellent properties in the territory of Padua and Euganean Hills. Since the beginning of our opening, in 2014, we have been able to recognize and intercept the potential value of our land, for this reason, we, at Engel & Völkers Padova, intend to speak of “Restart” through the "Taste", identifying partners with excellent food and wine products.


Engel & Völkers Padova chooses Diemme Industria Caffè torrefatti S.p.A., an established Paduan company in Coffee Roasting for three generations, under the historical brand Caffè Diemme.

The company, since 1927, has spread and shared the pleasure of good coffee, in Padua, Italy, and over 40 countries. Since ever led by the Dubbini family, in almost a century of history and entrepreneurial activity, it has been able to enhance a career linked to taste, experimentation, and innovation. For Diemme, this path expresses in four values: Passion, Research, Transparency, and Professionalism.


We also, at Engel & Völkers, identify ourselves in these values, in particular in the PASSION.


For both Diemme Caffè and Engel & Völkers, passion intertwines with history. Just as the Dubbini family, through three generations, has been able to grow, strengthen, overcome difficult moments and achieve important goals, so, in the last 40 years, with great passion, Christian Völkers and Dirk Engel realized their ambitious dream: to create the main real estate company in the world. The leitmotiv that led both companies to look to the future is in Christian Völkers' answer when he was a child and was questioned about what he wanted to do when he grew up: “I've always had the desire to achieve something, to develop something concrete".


The Dubbinis created something concrete in the world of coffee, evolving to meet the consumers' desires and the new market demands, changed over time. Because, after all, enjoying a good coffee is a pleasure, like finding the home of one's dreams after a long search. And precisely ... everything passed - and still passes - through the Research and Experimentation that has led, over the years, to the creation of a wide range of blends of roasted coffee beans branded Caffè Diemme -Gli Speciali Diemme, Artisti del Caffè, and Torrefazione Dubbini- with appreciated refined personalities, studied to obtain unique aromatic and taste profiles in the cup, depending on the palates to be satisfied. Up to the latest new products, for domestic consumption, which are the compatible and compostable single-dose capsules, not to mention the jars of ground coffee for mocha and espresso.



But as we all know ... sometimes, stopping at the first and second searches is not enough. Let's face it ... we have become demanding!


Even our clients often ask us to find a "special" house that satisfies their needs, in various perspectives,  going beyond the mere housing cause. A similar experience is "going beyond the simple cup of coffee" ...


Diemme has been able to interpret the most current trends, to propose new paths of taste, by creating Gli Speciali Diemme: a line of single origins and excellent blends. An out of the ordinary proposal, which promotes a curious, more aware and passionate approach to each cup of coffee. This approach reflects in the numerous details on the label - from the characteristics of the raw materials to the sensorial notes and the recommended extraction methods - that are the results of the scrupulous investigation and continuous experimentation conducted by Diemme Laboratory, a flagship on Paduan territory and beyond.


It’s in satisfying the most refined palates that professionalism comes into play… just like Engel & Volkers, a team of agents and professionals, offers day after day the best service to find the perfect solution: an exclusive homemade just for the client, Diemme approaches his clients with two equally exclusive proposals:

- The “Caffè Diemme Italian Attitude” format: five coffee shops, of which one in Padua in the splendid location of Prato della Valle. 

These are “places of taste”, where Diemme’s passion and philosophy take shape. A concept where, like in any home worthy of respect the kitchen is the heart of the house, a place where you can mix and taste ingredients, in our case the best coffee beans, to enjoy and use on-site, or to take home to be tasted with a continuos discovery thanks to the new modern mixture configurator, with which everyone becomes the owner of their own ideal coffee, according to your taste and preferences.
