Nescafé Dolce Gusto coffee system

NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto is a prominent single-serve coffee capsule system that offers a diverse range of beverages including espresso, latte macchiato, and hot chocolate. The brand was originally launched in 2006 to provide a versatile alternative to traditional coffee makers, focusing on both hot and cold beverage preparation with its unique high-pressure technology.

While the specialized coffee capsules are produced in high-tech facilities across Europe—most notably in Tutbury, United Kingdom, and Girona, Spain—the hardware and machines are typically manufactured by third-party partners like Krups and De'Longhi, primarily in China. The brand remains a core pillar of Nestlé's global coffee portfolio.

The brand is owned by the Swiss multinational Nestlé S.A. Nestlé has maintained control over the brand since its inception, positioning it to compete in the premium portioned coffee market alongside its sister brand, Nespresso. Nestlé continues to be the ultimate owner and leader in the beverage sector globally.
