A new, intense Lungo to enliven the senses

The first sip of coffee in the morning is a moment of sheer pleasure. To make that moment last, Nespresso invites coffee lovers to savour the sumptuous and unique flavour of its newest and most intense Lungo in the permanent Grand Cru range: Envivo Lungo.

 

Sumptuous body and unique flavour

With an intensity of 9 on the scale of 1 to 12, Envivo Lungo stimulates the senses thanks to its potent and generous character. This long-cup Grand Cru is a dark, split-roasted blend of distinctive Arabica from India with a Robusta from Mexico. In cup, it reveals caramelised notes reminiscent of aromatic dry wood and gingerbread, followed by an intense and pleasant aftertaste.

Alexis Rodriguez, Head of Coffee Development at Nespresso commented, “We carefully crafted Envivo Lungo with a high proportion of Robusta coffee beans to produce a strong, full-bodied coffee. We specifically use washed Robusta, which gives a more refined taste to deliver a final product that is strong but without any harshness on the palate.”

 

A morning coffee that marries perfectly with milk

When creating this new Grand Cru, Nespresso coffee experts were inspired by the traditional morning coffee that many consumers savour with milk in a longer serving size. Envivo Lungo thus combines perfectly with milk, maintaining its distinctive flavour for a bold and deliciously rich start to the day.

Enjoyed as a Lungo Macchiato, with a touch of milk froth, Envivo Lungo becomes rounder while keeping its intense character. As a Latte Macchiato, combined with the smoothness of milk froth, it expresses softened woody notes while developing round, indulgent and buttery aromatics.

 

More choice for long-cup coffee lovers
