Peet's Coffee Espresso Capsules — Crema Scura Medium Roast, 100-Count Aluminum Pods, Nespresso Original-Compatible

Peet's Crema Scura Espresso Capsules deliver a thick, creamy medium-roast espresso with earthy, nutty notes and a lasting finish in a convenient aluminum pod.

Inspired by the dark, dense crema served in Peet's coffee bars, Crema Scura is blended and roasted to produce an intense, full-bodied espresso that works as a short ristretto or classic espresso pull. Each aluminum capsule is filled with 100% Arabica coffee and sealed to lock in aroma and freshness. These capsules are designed for Nespresso Original-style machines and come in a bulk pack of 100 for home or office use, with a Peet's mail-back recycling option for the aluminum pods.

Whether you prefer short ristrettos or classic espresso shots, these capsules are formulated to deliver consistent crema, aroma, and body cup after cup without complicated grinding or tamping. Note: Peet's is not affiliated with the Nespresso brand.
