Here's another entry in Nespresso's summer limited edition drinks, the Freddo Intenso! I love a nice strong coffee, so I gave this a try, following package instructions which is to pull a shot into 90g of ice. Aaaand, this was an absolutely bitter punch to the face! Despite the dilution from the ice, this drink is still full-bodied and overwhelmingly bitter, with a plum-like acidity.
Underneath the bitterness you get subtle hints of earthiness and cocoa, but to be honest, the strong flavors are far too overwhelming for this to be enjoyable - 0.5/5, too bitter, too acidic. Maybe I'll try this with a bit of milk next time.
Nespresso describes this as a dark roast blend with bold and intense flavors, but have not assigned this a number on their "intensity" scale. While I get what they're going for, this really isn't a drink for me.Cupping Method:This Nespresso capsule review was added to Coffee Roast with the permission of coffeepodthoughts.
