Nespresso Istanbul Espresso is an intense coffee capsule made from a blend of Arabica and Robusta coffee beans for a rich, velvety espresso.
Drawing on their expertise in blending and roasting, Nespresso experts have recreated Turkish traditions in cups of delicious coffee, full of wild aromas and a balance of bitter roasted and fruity notes, with a light acidity and an almond aftertaste that hints at sweetness.
Istanbul Espresso is a modern tribute to the ancient Turkish method of making coffee, brewed in a long-handled brass or copper cezve. The taste of this oldest tradition is celebrated with Ethiopian Arabica beans in the blend and Indian Robusta. The two types of coffee beans combine to create a wonderfully complex profile - bitterness and acidity, wild fruity and roasted notes.
At once eclectic and harmonious, the coffee is as dynamic as the hustle and bustle of Istanbul's first coffee shops, as dynamic as the coffee history at this crossroads of ancient trade routes centuries ago. A beautiful, intense cup leaves much to be desired - its combination with the rich, sweet taste of Turkish delight leaves much to be desired.
