• What does “Pure Origin” or “Single Origin” coffee mean?

  A pure origin or single origin coffee is made of coffees coming from the same country of origin. At Nespresso, each “pure origin” is exclusively and genuinely composed (100%) of coffees coming from a single country of origin and even limited regions that offer unique profiles. We perform rigorous sampling and testing to ensure that we have only 100% pure origins.

• What is so special about the highest quality coffee that Nespresso uses?

  Nespresso coffee experts look for only the finest beans with a particular taste and specific aromatic characteristics, to create the Nespresso blends. Each coffee is evaluated through tasting to ensure that they meet the Nespresso quality standards and match the exact aroma profiles.

  Nespresso is committed to offering its consumers only the finest gourmet coffees. Throughout the year, Nespresso green coffee experts and their green coffee supply partners ensure these highest quality standards by actively seeking out such coffees cultivated in farming communities in the world premium coffee-producing areas. These are often remote regions, where a combination of altitude, climate and rich soil produce the distinctive flavours, aromas and complex character that make up Nespresso Coffees.

• Are Nespresso capsules just filled with pure coffee?

  Nespresso coffee capsules contain only pure coffee - that’s why no additives of any kind are used or needed. The quality and consistency of our coffee in the cup and its exquisite crema are the result of the highest quality coffee, the way we manage the quality during the whole production process and the unique Nespresso system – the interaction of the original Nespresso aluminium capsule and the genuine Nespresso machine.

• Where are the coffees used in the capsules sourced from?

  The coffees used by Nespresso are sourced primarily from: Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, Kenya, Ethiopia and India.

• Where are the coffee capsules produced?

  All the coffee capsules are produced in Switzerland, in the Nespresso Production Centres of Orbe and Avenches. The coffee capsules are then shipped worldwide from the Avenches site.

• Why is Nespresso coffee not available in stores/supermarkets?

  Our unique business model enables us to manage quality at every stage of the value chain and to maintain direct consumer relationships. We believe this allows us to best anticipate and respond to consumer expectations. We know that Nespresso Club Members value the individual treatment they experience at Nespresso – whether it is through the Nespresso Online Boutique, the Nespresso Customer Relationship Centres, or the face-to-face contact at our Nespresso Boutiques (which will be coming soon).

• Where can I buy Nespresso products?

  You can buy Nespresso products in our Online Boutique – https://nespresso.com/in.

• How much caffeine is in each Nespresso capsule?

  The amount of caffeine is different for each coffee and depends on two factors: the proportion of Robusta in the blend (Robusta contains twice as much caffeine as Arabica), and the quantity of ground coffee used to prepare the cup.

  The caffeine content for Espressos and Lungos varies between 60-85mg of caffeine.

• How many calories are in each Nespresso capsule?

  There are 1260 Kj (300 Kcal) in 100 grams of roasted and ground coffee. Nespresso espresso capsules contain 5.5 grams of coffee on average, whereas the lungos contain approximately 7 grams of coffee per capsule. Taking note of the fact that the coffee grounds are not consumed whole but rather their contents are dissolved in water, the calorie count is even less. A 40ml (or 1.35 oz) cup of espresso contains approximately 0.6 calories while a 110ml (or 3.75 oz) lungo contains approximately 1.0 calorie.

• Do Nespresso capsules contain any additives or preservatives?

  The permanent varieties, as well as the Limited Editions and the Holiday Variations, do not contain any allergens, including but not limited to gluten, lactose or nuts.

  References to "malt", "milk", or "cocoa" notes are components of the aromatic profile and do not suggest their presence in the coffee.
