Continental coffee fans take note: Nespresso has introduced two limited edition ‘Grand Cru’ coffees and one permanent new flavour for the enjoyment of Club Members on their De’Longhi benchtop or Miele integrated machines.

The two new limited edition flavours are Trieste (green) and Napoli (red).

Much like the Napoli football team turns its style up to 11, the Napoli blend has an intensity rating eclipsing the 10-point chart Nespresso traditionally uses. Napoli is best served as a Ristretto.

Trieste is not as strong as Napoli, only scoring a 9 (which is still very strong), and is also best enjoyed as a Ristretto.

Those who like drinking a full mug of coffee will enjoy the new permanent addition to the range: Linizio Lungo (orange). This flavour is best enjoyed as a lungo and carries a 4 score for intensity.

Enjoy a ristretto in the spirit of Italy before Nespresso takes Trieste and Napoli away from us.

Linizio Lungo: here for a good time and a lungo one…
