“GENIUS IS FINDING THE INVISIBLE LINK BETWEEN THINGS.” Vladimir Nabokov

rom the beginning, we aimed to make the invisible, visible. We took our cue from the achievements of the great and the good of the past when the Maverick, a person who quite literally refuses to follow the customs or rules of a group, discovered a moment of genius through key technological innovations of the 20th Century. Apply the same logic to the barista and the noble coffee machine, when a collision of creative forces and bespoke technology can result in one, perfect, cup of coffee. But as we all know, there is an ocean of disparity between an ordinary cup of coffee, and one that has the ability to fundamentally alter the dynamic of our day: it means so much to millions of us on a daily basis, whether it’s the first wake-up shot in the morning or the post-dinner digestif in the evening. The Black Eagle VA388 has done so much to address this, it’s already a much-treasured coffee machine by baristas all over the globe, so how can we improve on that? The team went beyond a zone of pre-existing ideas, further than the space that exists between the barista and technology, to a twilight plane of potential, a place where inspiration can be facilitated to create something profoundly unique. We knew we had to give the barista, the Maverick, more. Not just a bit more control, but complete domination over the temperature, the brew, the steam, even the opportunity to shift instantly between genres of coffee. So, we gave them brand-new sustainable technology, a system to revolutionise the way they make a cup of coffee. We gave them the Maverick and took it from there.
