Mutana Hill

The name is a play on its founders: Marc Aguye, Marco Paccagnella, and Marco De Rebotti, three friends who all share variations of the same first name. Marc and Marco De Rebotti had worked together at Nomad Coffee, while Marco Paccagnella was a regular customer who happened to work in an office above the Nomad space. They launched Three Marks in Barcelona's Fort Pienc neighborhood in 2018. De Rebotti, an Italian who handles all things coffee and roasting, spent three and a half years at his previous operation absorbing skills before taking the leap. The interiors are deliberately minimal: high ceilings, giant windows, and Marzocco Modbar machines at the bar. Three Marks collaborates closely with producers in Colombia, Ethiopia, and Kenya, and offers extraction through V60, Chemex, Aeropress, espresso, and cold brew. The team believes 90 percent of people in the coffee industry are good people, and that the specialty community grows best together.
