Nespresso Vertuo coffee capsule

Nespresso is a premium coffee brand that revolutionized the industry with its portioned coffee system. The image shows a Vertuo pod, which features a unique barcode on the rim that tells the machine exactly how to brew that specific blend. The brand was originally conceived by Eric Favre, an employee at Nestlé, and officially launched in 1986.

Today, Nespresso is a primary operating unit of the Nestlé Group. While the coffee beans are sourced from various regions globally to create unique blends, all Nespresso aluminum capsules are manufactured and packaged in several high-tech production centers located in Switzerland. This centralized manufacturing ensures consistent quality and adherence to their specific technical standards for both the Original and Vertuo lines.
