Caffè Vergnano Napoli review
Origin: Robusta coffee Intensity: 5/5 Body: 4/5 Order: Buy Caffè Vergnano Napoli at Caffè Vergnano , Buy Caffè Vergnano Napoli at Amazon Dark brown foam. Very tall crema, probably the tallest of all capsules reviewed so far. Profoundly roasted aroma, with caramel and spicy hints. At first taste the cup is dry and virtually devoid of any acidity. Contrary to the impression that the colour of the coffee could give, a medium-heavy bodied cup instead of a fuller bodied one. Not much sweetness either, again, against the first impression given by the aroma. Overall dry and somewhat bitter but not overwhelmingly so. An intense cup, with a very persisting crema,…

Caffè Vergnano Lungo Intenso review
Origin: Arabica and Robusta coffee from Latin America and Africa Intensity: 3/5 Body: 3/5 Order: Buy Caffè Vergnano Lungo Intenso at Caffè Vergnano , Buy Caffè Vergnano Lungo Intenso at Amazon Light brown foam. Cereals, malted, and milk chocolate aroma, with a distinct gentleness and sweetness. A dry, light-medium bodied cup. Somewhat sweet, with a moderate intensity. Tones of cereals and malt are the most prominent ones, with a feeble acidity underlining them. Probably a light roasted blend. Long lasting crema. A gentle cup of coffee to be drunk as a lungo and brewed not too hot, as the flavours would otherwise succumb to the temperature. Slight chocolate aftertaste.

Caffé Vergnano Intenso review
Origin: African Arabica coffee Intensity: 5/5 Body: 5/5 Order: Buy Caffé Vergnano Intenso at Caffé Vergnano , Buy Caffé Vergnano Intenso at Amazon Dark brown foam. Spicy smell mixed with a gently roasted aroma permeate the room after brewing this capsule. Lightly dry and acidic at first, with subtle undertones of green fruits, like apples or pears. A medium-heavy bodied cup with a thick and persistent crema. Good intensity, slightly sweet and not at all bitter. At lower temperatures, a dark chocolate flavour comes to dominate the tasting experience, with almonds and a fruity acidity like apples’ accompanying it. Overall an intense and complex cup of coffee, that has enough…

Caffè Vergnano Decaf review
Origin: Central and South America Arabica coffee Intensity: 3/5 Body: 5/5 Order: Buy Caffè Vergnano Decaf at Caffè Vergnano , Buy Caffè Vergnano Decaf at Amazon Dark brown foam. Malty, sweet and delicately roasty aroma. At first taste somewhat acidic with a pleasurable tinge of bitterness, like cocoa powder. Some woodiness. A medium bodied cup with a weak crema. Slightly acidic aftertaste. Overall a quite balanced blend, with sandalwood and chocolate flavors dominating and an average acidity, neither very fruity nor pungent. Medium intensity too for a coffee mostly for quiet moments when there’s time to sip it slowly.

Caffè Vergnano Cremoso review
Origin: Central and South America Arabica with some African Robusta coffee Intensity: 4/5 Body: 4/5 Order: Buy Caffè Vergnano Cremoso at Caffè Vergnano , Buy Caffè Vergnano Cremoso at Amazon Light brown foam. Moderately sweet, hazelnut’s aroma. The crema is persisting and thick, as you’d expect from a “cremoso” (creamy in italian) blend. Dry and slightly bitter at first. A medium-dark roast. Somewhat spicey, hints of a not too dark chocolate tablet can be noticed along with a peppery flavour. A bit of a salty aftertaste, barely present. Cup is leaning towards an heavy body with a very soft, creamy feel. Low acidity in general, gently stepping up at lower…

Caffè Vergnano Arabica review
Origin: Central and South America Arabica and Robusta coffee Intensity: 3/5 Body: 4/5 Roasting: medium Order: Buy Caffè Vergnano Arabica at Caffè Vergnano , Buy Caffè Vergnano Arabica at Amazon Light brown foam. Nicely roasted aroma, somewhat woody and floral. At first taste, a medium-bodied cup with a good mix of bitterness and acidity. Acidity isn’t particularly bright nor pungent but more delicate. Overall woody, slightly herbal and a small component of sweetness are the prevailing notes. Medium intensity for a probably medium roast. Vague floral undertones, mostly overcome by the woodiness and Robusta’s characteristics. A solid capsule for medium intensity espresso lovers.

Caffè Vergnano Bio review
Origin: 100% Arabica coffee from organic farming Intensity: 3/5 Body: 4/5 Order: Buy Caffè Vergnano Bio at Caffè Vergnano Brown foam. Pleasurable roasted aroma with some sweetness. Medium body, dark roast. Bitterness prevails overall, especially when coffee is very hot. Subtle fruity sweetness, like of apples’, and a pungent cocoa undertone are the main flavors present. Persistent crema. Silky mouthfeel, no specific aftertastes (actually pretty low on aftertaste in general). A capsule that is very balanced, that doesn’t lean towards any flavor and possessing nearly no acidity. A well-round cup of coffee, with medium intensity, for the moments when neither a light nor a strong coffee is needed.
