Starbucks Just Opened Its First Store EVER in Italy, and It's More Gorgeous Than We Imagined

Customers won't be able to miss the big bronze cask that sits in the middle of the Milan Roastery. Occasionally, it will open up and give viewers a glimpse inside the de-gassing chamber, "a natural part of the roasting process through which every coffee bean passes," Starbucks said. The casks in the Starbucks Reserve Roasteries in Shanghai and Seattle are made of copper, but this is the first one made of bronze, a traditional material in Milan.
