Coffee beans – grown and harvested in Colombia
We grow and harvest our coffee in their countries of origin. It’s pulped, fermented, washed and dried in Colombia. The seed of the coffee cherry (called a green bean) is transported for roasting to Switzerland where it is blended and roasted to perfection. Finally, the beans are ground and encapsulated before they make their way to you.
Every Nespresso coffee has its own taste, depending on the blend composition and terroir. Terroir refers to the unique and differing coffee tastes based on altitude, soil composition, plant variety, temperature, climate and a range of other factors.
Did you know every Nespresso cup you enjoy makes a positive contribution, to sustainable quality coffee from farmers to consumers?
Our specially designed hermetically sealed aluminium capsules designed to lock in freshness capture the flavours and blends Colombian coffee is known for.

Our Master Origin Colombia coffee uses only high-grown, washed Colombian Arabica. Our coffee farmers who waited a little longer before harvesting their crop deliver coffee with lively acidity and a burst of winey red fruit aromas. Combine this coffee with milk froth and sweet biscuit notes emerge.
The Master Origin Colombia coffee capsules are available in both the Original and Vertuo systems. The Original Master Origin Colombia flavour comes in the espresso and lungo sizes, while the Vertuo pods can be purchased in mug size.
