Coffee profile

In full force

Fortado is the most intense Vertuo coffee in its Gran Lungo size. Its Indian robusta comes at you with full force, and cocoa and oak wood notes emerge from the Colombian arabica.

Add a little milk to this Vertuo coffee and it’ll keep all its power – but with those great cocoa notes enhanced.

Intense and full-bodied

This Vertuo coffee owes its intensity and full body first to the robusta. Robusta also adds thickness to Fortado’s coffee crema. But you can thank the Colombian arabica for that distinct cocoa and oak character.

Origins

We chose a naturally-processed Indian robusta for its high-end quality and unmatched intensity and full body. If you’re tasting those cocoa and oak wood notes, that’s the washed Colombian arabica we blended with the robusta. Vertuo Fortado is the arabica and robusta coffee blend that comes at you with full force.

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

This Vertuo coffee capsule is split-roasted. It gives you all that robusta intensity without any harshness. A long roast at medium temperatures brings out that intensity in the Indian robusta. We roast the arabica dark and long to develop those rich cocoa and oak wood notes.

Recipes

With milk, this coffee retains its powerful character while enhancing its cocoa notes.
