Enjoy A Taste Of Paris This Festive Season With Nespresso

The festive season is truly the most wonderful time of the year. Around the world, friends, family and loved ones come together to toast the highs of the year that has passed, and the hopes for the year that is to come. The spirit of the season is defined by celebration: exchanging gifts, spending quality time with loved ones and making new special memoriesThe joy is tangible at this time of the year, and nothing encapsulates the mood of the season quite like the magic of Paris.

In order to celebrate the indulgence, opulence and wonder of the festive seasonNespresso has launched the new Limited Edition Variations inspired by Parisian Gourmandise. The Variations coffees centre on the sweet treats synonymous with the festive season, and are inspired by the traditional flavours of Parisian patisseries including Macaron and Praline. These quintessentially French flavours will instantly transport you to a Parisian cafe from the first sip. These Variations boast two unique flavour creations and, in true French fashion, include a Paris Black espresso coffee that caters to those preferring coffee in its pure taste.
 
The decadence and delight of each of these three Nespresso Variations coffees are captured by their packaging, uniquely designed by a renowned international interior designer, India Mahdavi. Treating each creation as though it is a couture piece, Mahdavi’s influence on the Nespresso Variations is evident in the range’s pastel hues and playful designs. She has created a collection fit for the most discerning of coffee and design aficionados.
 
Each of the Variations have been based on the Nespresso Livanto coffee blend which consists of pure Arabica from Southern and Central America. It is well-balanced with roasted caramelised note providing roundness and balance in the finished coffees
Nespresso Variations Macaron 
A harmonious combination of cereal notes and a subtle and sweet almond flavour, emblematic of the macaron pastry.
Nespresso Variations Praline 
This flavoured espresso pairs the roundness of Livanto’s base with a delicate roasted hazelnut flavour, enhanced by a touch of caramel sweetness. A harmonious blend reminiscent of a praliné dessert. 
Nespresso Paris Black 
A very aromatic blend of Arabicas, emboldened by Robusta. It displays notes of cereal and nuts in a syrupy texture, combined with spicy and woody tones.
