The pure origin espressos from Nespresso

In with our order was a little packet of the three current special Nespresso blends. We’ve just had a comparative tasting (along with Ristretto).

Dulsao from Brazil (strength 5) was quite flavoursome but ultimately a bit weak. It’d be good for making cappuccino, I feel.

Rosabaya from Colombia (strength 6) was bitter and unsatisfying, the flavours didn’t seem to work together. Avoid.

Indriya, the Indian offering, was just great. Really strong clove and pepper flavours with a good dark chocolate character. I loved it; better than Ristretto and just as strong.
