Description
xAltissio Decaffeinato by Nespresso Vertuo is a rich, dark-roast decaffeinated espresso pod delivering a full-bodied cup with creamy, cereal-like notes and a thick velvety crema.
This 50-count pack contains Nespresso Vertuo capsules crafted from decaffeinated Latin American Arabicas blended with Robusta to recreate the original Altissio character without caffeine. The roast is intense and short to bring forward deep roasty flavors while keeping a soft cereal sweetness, resulting in a dense, aromatic 1.35 fl. oz. espresso ideal for straight sipping or milk-based recipes. These capsules are made from aluminum to preserve freshness and support Nespresso's recycling initiatives.
How does Altissio Decaffeinato preserve Altissio’s bold flavor without caffeine?
The blend uses decaffeinated Arabicas—primarily from South America—combined with a hint of Robusta to maintain body and crema. A purposeful dark, short roast increases roasted notes and caramelized cereal nuances so the decaf version mirrors the original’s intensity.
- Decaffeinated Latin American Arabicas for sweetness and balance
- Robusta component to sustain crema and structure
- Dark, short roast to emphasize roasty and cereal notes
- Vertuo extraction tailored for a 1.35 fl. oz. espresso
