Description
This stamp issue celebrates America’s enduring love of coffee with four designs inspired by espresso-based drinks. Whether enjoyed creamy or bold, sweetened, flavored, or intensely rich, many favorite coffee beverages share one essential starting point: espresso.
The booklet of 20 stamps includes four different designs illustrating well-known espresso drinks: espresso, cappuccino, caffe latte, and caffe mocha. Each digital illustration captures the warm, welcoming feel of an early 20th-century café and draws inspiration from the look of advertising posters from the 1920s and 1930s. The names of the drinks appear in art deco-style lettering placed above or below each inviting cup.
Espresso culture in the United States is more popular than ever. The rise of artisanal coffee shops, deeper knowledge of roasting and brewing techniques, and ongoing improvements in coffee equipment have all helped specialty coffee reach new heights. Many people still depend on a skilled barista to prepare their favorite espresso drinks at a café, though home espresso machines have also become increasingly popular. Whether it is part of a morning routine or an excuse to meet with others at a neighborhood café, espresso-based beverages have become a lasting and fashionable part of everyday life.
