Starbucks Espresso Roast Decaf by Nespresso

Starbucks Espresso Roast Decaf by Nespresso is a premium decaffeinated coffee product designed specifically for the Nespresso capsule system. The brand Starbucks originated in Seattle, Washington, USA, in 1971, founded by Jerry Baldwin, Zev Siegl, and Gordon Bowker. While the Starbucks brand is American in origin, this specific retail coffee product is part of a strategic global alliance.

In 2018, Nestlé and Starbucks entered into a 'Global Coffee Alliance' which granted Nestlé the perpetual rights to market Starbucks consumer packaged goods and foodservice coffee and tea products globally, outside of Starbucks coffee houses. As a result, while Starbucks Corp retains ownership of the brand name, the manufacturing and distribution of these pods are managed by Nestlé. These capsules are primarily manufactured in Nestlé's highly specialized production facilities in Switzerland, ensuring compatibility with Nespresso machines which are also a Nestlé brand.
