Barista Meaning – Not Just a „Coffee Maker”

The word barista is of Italian origin: it originally meant a barman (i.e. bartender), but today we mostly call professional coffee makers that. 

A professional barista doesn't just make coffee, he's a true coffee expert: he knows the ingredients, the logic behind different recipes, and always knows what makes a given cup truly special.

Beyond the machine: the meaning of barista coffee

At barista coffee means more than just a well-made drink. It's a complete experience that depends on quality ingredients, freshness, and meticulous attention to detail. 

Such coffee contains the knowledge that the barista applies to every aspect of coffee preparation: from grinding to steaming milk to garnishing - whether it's a creamy Latte or a characterful Espresso.

Barista coffee beans as the basis of everything

The perfect coffee starts with good coffee beans. At Smúz, only barista-made coffee beans are used in the cups – freshly roasted, specialty-quality coffees from the Hungarian 42 Coffee Roastery, which are carefully selected for each drink. 

This is one of the differences you will feel from the first sip.
