Peet's Coffee Nerissimo Espresso Capsules — Dark Roast 100-Count, Intensity 11, Nespresso Original Compatible

Peet's Nerissimo Espresso Capsules are 100 aluminum single-serve pods of dark-roast, intensity-11 espresso designed for Nespresso Original machines, delivering a bold, bittersweet crema-rich shot every time.

These capsules pack Peet's signature French Roast-style Nero flavor into individually sealed aluminum shells to lock in aroma and flavor. Made from 100% Arabica beans and roasted to a dark, caramelized profile, the Nerissimo blend aims for a deep, slightly smoky sweetness that stands up to milk or delivers a dense, syrupy straight espresso. The pack contains ten boxes of ten capsules each (100 total) and is compatible with Nespresso Original-series machines; aluminum capsules are recyclable through Peet's mail-back program.

What does Nerissimo taste like and how intense is it?

Nerissimo is a dark-roast espresso with an intensity rating of 11, offering a bittersweet profile balanced by subtle caramelized sugar notes. Expect pronounced roast character, smoky edges, and a lingering sweet finish that pairs well with milk-based drinks or as a robust straight shot.

• Dark roast, French-Roast style flavor with smoky and caramelized sugar notes
• Intensity 11 — bold enough for milk drinks and strong espresso servings
• 100% Arabica beans for clean, nuanced flavor despite heavy roast
• Sealed aluminum capsules preserve aroma and crema quality

Which machines work with these Peet's capsules?

Peet's Nerissimo capsules are designed to fit Nespresso Original-series machines only; they are not compatible with Vertuo machines. They reliably work in popular Original models, giving consistent pressure and extraction for both ristretto and espresso settings.

• Compatible with Nespresso Original, Essenza, Pixie, CitiZ, Lattissima, and Creatista series
• Not compatible with Nespresso Vertuo machines
• Best results using Ristretto (25 ml) or Espresso (40 ml) settings
• Capsules are aluminum-sealed to maintain freshness until brewing

How should I brew Nerissimo for the best result?

Brew Nerissimo as a short, concentrated pull to capture crema and flavor: a ristretto or a standard espresso extraction highlights the roast's depth and sweetness. If you prefer milk drinks, pull an espresso and then add steamed milk or foam to balance the intense roast.

• Ristretto: 0.85 oz (25 ml) for the most concentrated taste
• Espresso: 1.35 oz (40 ml) for a fuller mouthfeel
• Try with 1–2 oz warmed milk for a rich cortado or cappuccino
• Use fresh water and clean machine for consistent crema and extraction

Are these capsules recyclable and how does Peet's handle packaging?

Yes — the Nerissimo capsules are aluminum and part of Peet's recycling mail-back program, which lets you return used capsules for proper recycling. Each capsule is individually sealed to extend shelf life and maintain the espresso's aromatic profile until brewing.

• Aluminum capsules recyclable via Peet's mail-back collection program
• Individually sealed to protect aroma and flavor integrity
• Pack of 10 boxes x 10 capsules = 100 total single-serve pods
• Clear compatibility labeling to prevent mixing with Vertuo systems

Who is this for: Peet's Nerissimo Espresso Capsules suit home baristas and busy coffee lovers who want a consistently bold, dark-roast espresso without measuring or grinding. If you own a Nespresso Original-series machine and enjoy a smoky, bittersweet cup that holds up to milk, this 100-count pack provides convenience, sealed freshness, and recyclable aluminum packaging for frequent espresso drinkers.
