Partner content: Nespresso celebrates coffee culture across the world with the launch of 3 exciting espressos inspired by Paris, Istanbul and Rio

Nespresso is pleased to launch three exciting espressos as part of its World Explorations range, a collection that celebrates coffee culture around the world. The launch includes three new additions: World Explorations Paris Espresso, World Explorations Istanbul Espresso and World Explorations Rio de Janeiro Espresso.

Through the World Explorations range, Nespresso invites you to discover distinct ways to drink coffee from around the world, at the touch of a button within your own home using your Nespresso Original machine. Inspired by the diversity of local coffee cultures and rituals, expert blending and roasting action recreate local coffee profiles from famous cities across the globe, which now include Paris, Rio de Janeiro and Istanbul.

3 new cities with a strong coffee heritage

 From the first coffee merchants and coffeehouses of Istanbul to Paris’ rich coffee shop culture, which boasts more than 35,000 cafés and coffee-serving restaurants, and Rio de Janeiro representing Brazil, as the world’s largest coffee-producing country, all three cities were selected because of their strong coffee heritage.

 World Explorations Istanbul Espresso 

Taking you back to traditional Turkish coffeehouses, this intense ambrosial brew bursts with boldness, wild ripe fruits and a delicate almond touch. Like traditional Turkish coffee, Ethiopian Arabica and Indian Robusta bring a thick and velvety style, reminding us of the city once at a crossroads on the ancient coffee trade routes.

World Explorations Paris Espresso 

With its rich café culture where locals enjoy philosophising over a coffee, Paris Espresso transports you straight to the Parisian terraces with its balanced blend of lightly roasted Latin American Arabicas, emboldened by Vietnamese Robusta. Delicately bitter with cereal and citrus notes, this is a cup that lives up to the Parisian café experience.

World Explorations Rio de Janeiro Espresso 

Embodying the spirit of this lively, colourful city, Rio de Janeiro Espresso reflects the country’s deep-rooted heritage of coffee growing and drinking. This is an intense, exotic and velvety espresso, crafted exclusively with Brazilian Arabicas, boasting a unique touch of sandalwood, along with herbal notes.

The design on the capsules and sleeves for the World Explorations range gives a nod to the cultures and cities the collection has been inspired by, pulling out iconic designs and motifs that pay tribute to the vibrant cultural hooks of each area. 

The three new espressos are available in Nespresso stores nationwide and online.

The World Explorations range is compatible with the Original system only.
