I agree, although the Spanish, Portuguese, Turks and Austrians aren't too shabby at it either! However, for me, the whole experience you get, along with the quality of coffee (and food/pastries) served in traditional Italian caffès, such as shown below in the Sciascia Caffè in Rome, is where it's *at*. Quite simply, they do it with a level of love, style and panache that is second to none:

Make sure you play the video!
I also agree about Crema e Aroma. It's excellent, although I'm currently experimenting with others. If I'm to become more experienced with coffee (and consider myself as any kind of connoisseur), I need to familiarise myself with various different beans, to get a proper handle on all the different flavours, which I will be doing in due course.
At the moment however, I just want to discover my 'go to' favourites, so I can always return to something I really enjoy!
