Product review – Nespresso limited editions (Mexico and Rwanda)

Product review – Nespresso limited editions (Mexico and Rwanda)

For its newest Limited Edition launch, Nespresso presents two Pure Origin Grands Crus born in the contrasting coffee growing communities of Lake Kivu, Rwanda and Chiapas, Mexico. I have never visited Ruanda, but I have been to Mexico and I love the country, which I would like to visit further in the future. I was therefore  keen to try Nespresso’s latest cru dedicated to the country. I love the sleeves, on both crus: colourful, stylish and very much in line with…

Nespresso Coffee Masterclass at Westfield, London

Nespresso Coffee Masterclass at Westfield, London

The latest Nespresso boutique to open in London is located in Westfield in Shepherd’s Bush. Right before Christmas I was invited to visit the boutique and attend a private coffee masterclass with their coffee expert.

A meal by Thomas Dorfer, in Vienna

A meal by Thomas Dorfer, in Vienna

While in Vienna for the launch of the Maragogype Special Reserve with Nespresso, we were treated not only to a funky hotel stay (at the Ruby Sofie boutique hotel) but also to a fantastic meal by Michelin starred Austrian chef Thomas Dorfer, of restaurant Landhaus Bacher. Since Austria is not a country I visit often, I know very little of the culinary scene, I confess. And seeing the beautiful room at the Ruby Sofie set up for a very large…
