Festival mixture for the Lehár Festival 2022!

On Sunday, July 3, 2022, the coffee blend created especially for the Lehár Festival Bad Ischl was presented by the performers of the 2022 season at Konditorei Zauner!

Indentant Thomas Enzinger, Brigitte Stumpner and Philipp Zauner were particularly pleased that the long cooperation of the traditional Ischl companies now gets a culinary face in the form of the festival coffee!

“Intendant Thomas Enzinger asked us to create something very special for this year’s festival. Of course, we were happy to comply with his suggestion: We teamed up with our coffee partner Nussbaumer from Gmunden and created an exclusive coffee roast for the 2022 festival. Because own festival wines, -pralines or -chocolates already exist in abundance, an own festival coffee exists however only in Bad Ischl”, Philipp Zauner (managing director Konditorei Zauner).
The beans are roasted in the heart of the Salzkammergut region, and the green coffee for this special blend comes largely from the best growing areas of the Central and South American highlands.

“In order to be able to guarantee direct trade, I am in personal exchange with our coffee farmers, some of whom I have already been able to visit in their growing regions. In this way, we constantly strive to ensure transparent supply chains,” Marlene Drack, Austria’s youngest coffee roaster and junior manager of the Nussbaumer roasting plant.

The Nussbaumer family business, now in its fourth generation, stands for tradition and honest craftsmanship. Using a gentle drum roasting process, the beans are roasted in Gmunden on Lake Traunsee.

You can buy this special treat at the Zauner confectionery and at the Kongress & TheaterHaus Bad Ischl!

The Lehár Festival Bad Ischl & the Konditorei Zauner recommend:
A cup of “awakening” & “For a Kreuzer Nickerl-Batz!”!

Cheers!
