LIGHT AND REFRESHING
Leggero is a mild, refreshing blend of South American coffees with secret depths.
Lightly roasted Brazilian and Colombian Arabicas and Robusta give it a well-balanced and velvety body, toasted cereal and cocoa notes, and just that whisper of acidity and bitterness. Coffee milk recipes bring out a malty, caramel mellowness in Leggero, but the espresso coffee’s rich aromas still shine through.
Aromatic Profile
Leggero is velvety on the tongue, and full of smooth cocoa and cereal notes. That hint of acidity in this Nespresso espresso is balanced out by bitterness in the coffee blend.
Roasting
We light roast the Arabica and Robusta coffees in Nespresso Leggero. It keeps the Colombian coffee’s acidity alive and it gives the others those gentle toasted cereal and cocoa notes. All in balance.
Origin
Dry processed Arabicas from Brazil are known to be mild. It makes a solid base onto which we add Colombian Arabica for its lively acidity. A dry Robusta brings body - that velvety texture - and slightly vegetal notes. Though its predominantly a blend of mild coffees, that Robusta gives this Nespressopro capsule its secret depths.
