Packaging
The slim and elegant Nespresso packaging with a floral pattern contains aluminium capsules in the rose-gold finish which are made to star in decorative holders. The capsules can be recycled either by collecting with metal waste (emptied) or via the Nespresso recycling scheme. Nespresso describes Rosabaya as coffee with subtle, winey acidity of red berries. The intensity rating is 6.
Notes
Rosabaya contains washed Arabica beans from Colombia. Its distinct acidity makes Rosabaya an unusual offering in the Nespresso line-up. It will appeal to those, who enjoy the modern, fruity espresso style.
Rosabaya de Colombia capsules are currently being phased out from Nespresso Grands Crus offer, together with the entire Pure Origin line. Instead, Nespresso prepared a new line – Master Origin – which brings a new Colombia edition. Hopefully, upcoming Colombia will continue in the strong legacy of Rosabaya.
