Barista Corto review
- Origin: A blend of different origins, among which Monsooned Arabica from India and a washed Robusta from Guatemala
- Intensity: 11
- Bitterness: 5
- Roasting: 5
A 2017-2019 Barista Limited Edition, then part of the Barista Creations line.
Brown foam. Roasted aroma, strong and persistent. Medium acidity and quite bitter.
Colder is less acidic but bitterness remains. Hints of chocolate, dark, can be tasted at times but overall the very dark roasting of this capsule obfuscate flavors.
Strong and bitter is what the majority will feel of the Barista Corto.
Drank with milk, the Barista Corto maintains a moderate flavor of roastiness while the chocolate is more subtle, nearly crossing to cereals-like territories. Not much of an aroma anymore. With the wrong coffee:milk ratio the coffee may be overwhelmed.

I think this Corto is the worst Nespresso I’ve ever tasted.
