Nespresso rings in the festive season, inviting coffee lovers to spend Unforgettable Holidays with a new selection of coffees co-created by world-famous Chef Jean Imbert. Known for his luxury culinary projects worldwide, including his recent role as Head Chef of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, the French Chef is now lending his gastronomic expertise to Nespresso coffees.
The limited-edition Festive collection introduces new coffees and stylish accessories to complete the perfect gift selection for every coffee lover. Each item is presented through the Festive Odyssey campaign, inspired by Belmond’s legendary art of travel and train journeys around the world. The Nespresso Unforgettable Holidays campaign visually transports coffee aficionados on an enchanting quest, awakening the senses with flavours influenced by global exploration.
New Gastronomic Coffees
The newly released limited-edition coffees are designed to create unforgettable memories this holiday. The Unforgettable Espresso and Double Espresso evoke long train journeys through Latin America: an aromatic blend including Arabica beans from Peru and Costa Rica emboldened by Robusta, the coffee boasts toasted cereal and woody notes. Savour this black or as a delectable Latte Macchiato on Original or Double Cappuccino on Vertuo for a real taste of luxury.
Transporting you to the heart of Paris, the Almond Croissant Flavour coffee releases almond and buttery pastry notes. Enjoy it as a Cappuccino and let it unleash the almond notes. For a more distinct blend, the Peanut and Roasted Sesame Flavour combines notes of toasted sesame, popcorn, and mixed nuts to create a warming drink.
The Gifting Odyssey
Available for both the Original and Vertuo lines, the Nespresso Advent Calendars return in 2024, unveiling one coffee behind each door—a discovery of new coffee flavours co-created with Jean Imbert, along with some favourite Nespresso classics. With travel-inspired packaging, the advent calendar transports coffee lovers to a flavourful odyssey, from the charm of French boulangeries, the breathtaking mountains of Peru, to the captivating skies of Malaysia. A special gift awaits behind the last door.
Cosy Up to Creative Coffee Recipes
For the much-awaited season, Nespresso brings new recipes designed to maximize the flavours of its latest blends. Have an Iced Festive Peanut Butter Delight to savour the Peanut and Roasted Sesame Flavour coffee with whipped cream, topped with toasted sesame seeds and a touch of honey, or the Almond Croissant Flavour as a Gourmet Almond Croissant Latte with smooth milk and the subtlety of orange blossom. For a holiday twist, try the Unforgettable Cocktail Espresso by combining vanilla syrup, pineapple juice, freshly squeezed lime, a preferred brandy, and an intense shot of the Unforgettable Double Espresso.
