    Today I got locked out of my upstairs espresso setup during construction so I broke out some of the Nespresso capsules I'd purchased for guests.

    I had purchased this one at Eataly a few weeks ago, and actually had a couple. It makes a good crema both as regular and lungo espresso. The chocolate note is good here, and it lingers long after the cup is finished. That's the best part I'd say. Mid-palate there's a bit of smoke and spice.

    It's very solid overall, but IMHO doesn't rise to the caliber of some of the well-pulled CV shots I had at Eataly.

    Still, I think is one of the better/balanced Nespresso capsules I've had, but it doesn't top my favorite, the someone comparable Firenze Arpeggio (linked below for reference).

    Cupping Method:On my Delonghi Nespresso 660. Regular and lungo shots.

More Details

Roast Level: Medium
Medium roast coffee balances the beans' natural flavors and the roasting process, providing a well-rounded taste profile. When selecting a medium roast, look for a balance of acidity and sweetness, with caramel, nuts, and chocolate notes and a medium body.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema, which is the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
