Caffè Borbone Espresso ESE Pods Variety Pack 50-Count (44mm, Dark & Decaf) — Compostable Paper

This assortment brings together Caffè Borbone's signature Italian roasts in convenient pre-measured ESE pods. Each pod contains 7 g of espresso-ground coffee roasted in Italy to highlight chocolate, caramel, and hazelnut notes, and is built for easy extraction and consistent crema on compatible machines. The pack includes both caffeinated and decaf options so you can tailor your cup to the time of day while minimizing preparation time and cleanup.

Which blends are included and how do they taste?

The box contains five distinct blends: Miscela Blu, Miscela Rossa, Miscela Oro, Miscela Nera, and Miscele DEK (decaf). Each blend has a different roast profile and flavor emphasis, ranging from sweeter caramel and nut tones to richer, more intense chocolate notes. Miscele DEK offers an option for late-day or low-caffeine preferences without changing the pod format.

• Miscela Blu: balanced dark roast with a mild chocolate finish
• Miscela Rossa: robust and full-bodied, bolder roast notes
• Miscela Oro: smoother profile with caramel and nut undertones
• Miscela Nera: deepest roast, pronounced intensity and crema
• Miscele DEK: decaffeinated, preserves flavor character with less caffeine

How do these pods perform in an ESE espresso machine?

Each pod is formatted to the standard 44 mm ESE size and contains 7 g of coffee, making dosing consistent across shots. They’re designed for quick insertion and extraction so you get a reliable espresso pull and a creamy layer of crema when using compatible single-serve or pod espresso machines. Because they’re pre-dosed, they reduce measuring errors and speed up service in busy kitchens or at home.

• 44 mm ESE paper pods fit most ESE-compatible group heads
• 7 g of coffee per pod ensures consistent strength and body
• Produces steady crema and concentrated espresso flavor
• Fast, no-mess brewing—ideal for quick routines

Are these pods eco-friendly and how should I dispose of them?

The pods are made from compostable paper, offering an eco-conscious alternative to fully plastic capsules. While the pod material itself is designed to be compostable, the product’s outer wrapper is not compostable and should be discarded or recycled according to local packaging rules. Always check your local composting facility's guidelines to confirm acceptance of paper coffee pods.

• Pod material: compostable paper for reduced coffee waste
• Outer wrapper: not compostable—dispose per local recycling rules
• Reduces grounds cleanup versus loose-portafilter brewing

What makes this variety pack a practical choice for daily coffee drinkers?

The assortment covers a range of roast intensities so households or offices can satisfy differing preferences without buying multiple bulk bags. Pre-measured pods save time in the morning and standardize cup quality across users. The inclusion of a decaf option also lets you enjoy the same brewing ritual at any hour.

• 50 pods in one box—convenient supply without repeated reorders
• Multiple roast levels for versatile taste preferences
• Simple, fast preparation with minimal cleanup

Who is this for: This Caffè Borbone variety pack suits espresso lovers who want authentic Italian roasts in a fuss-free format—home brewers, small offices, or anyone wanting consistent single-serve espresso without measuring. It’s especially useful for people who value quick preparation, a range of flavor profiles including decaf, and a lower-footprint pod option compared with hard plastic capsules.
