A hidden treasure

Why we love it: Alto Onice delivers a full palate of strong cereal and deep woody notes for a longer cup to savour at home or on-the-go. Through the bold aromatics of beautiful bitter cocoa, spice and roasted notes comes a golden caramel note and a faint shimmer of acidity to balance this deep-roasted blend of coffees from Colombia, India, and beyond.

Only compatible with Vertuo Next Generation machines (Vertuo Next, Vertuo Pop, Vertuo Creatista & Vertuo Lattissima). Excludes Vertuo Plus machines.

Origins

A complex blend of several origins: through its Indian beans’ cocoa and spice notes comes the Colombian arabica’s shimmer of acidity in our longest cup size.

Rainforest alliance certifiedAAA Sustainable quality program since 2003
Our programs help regenerate the environment where coffee grows. We source over 40% of our coffee from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms.

Roasting

Arabicas and robustas are roasted together in the first split. The second split is composed exclusively from decaffeinated arabica, and is roasted for a slightly shorter time.

Recipes
