Nespresso Variations 2012

Nespresso Variations 2012 - three new limited edition flavors: Macademia Nut, Hazelnut, and Coconut! All three Variations have been blended with the Livanto Grand Cru, intensity 6, as the base coffee.

Got to get these soon! I'm really excited for the Coconut Flavor.

Nespresso Boutique IFC Mall Hong Kong

I ran out of coffee capsules so I visited the Nespresso Boutique in IFC Mall while I was in HK.

It always reminds me that I'm buying premium products whenever I enter these boutiques. This one in IFC is a bit small but it still has the charm of every store they have.

Naora 2012 Limited Edition Flavor | Nespresso

Thanks Ino Caluza for bringing me some of the new Naora capsules!

 

"The latest Nespresso Limited Edition Grand Cru, Naora, was made possible thanks to a two-year-long collaboration between Nespresso agronomists and experts, the Colombian Coffee Growers’ Federation (FNC) and some 1,500 farmers of Santander and Tolima regions who produced the coffee."
 

Naora is the result of a late harvesting process. The coffee cherries were matured for an extended yet controlled period of time allowing the coffee to develop a unit of aromatic notes similar to blackcurrant and blueberry.

Intensity: 5

Onirio 2011 Limited Edition Flavor | Nespresso

Coffee lovers will surely like this limited new blend from Nespresso - Onirio has a nice clean flavor with a unique flowery taste. 

"THIS BLEND OF THE FINEST ETHIOPIAN COFFEES IS SPECIALLY ROASTED TO OFFER THE MOST REFINED AROMAS. ONIRIO HAS A ROUNDED BODY AND PRESENTS REMARKABLE WHITE FLOWER NOTES, REMINISCENT OF JASMINE AND ORANGE BLOSSOM."

Onirio 2011 Limited Edition Flavor

 I brought home the boxed set of 3.

 Packaging is very different from the regular ones. This 2011 limited edition flavor comes in white boxes and white capsules. 

I just wish that they make this a regular flavor 'cause I will really miss this blend once it's off the market.

Nespresso Star Boutique | Champs Elysées

Visited the flagship Nespresso Star Boutique in Champs Elysées to look for my first Nespresso machine.

Luxurious and refined, that is what this store is telling you about their products. It's like entering a Chanel or an Hermes Store.

Virtual merchandising and the store design was executed really well. They made use of the branding in all corners of the store. The "N" logo is everywhere and they also used the coffee capsules as decorative element.
