TRAVEL THE GLOBE THROUGH COFFEE WITH NESPRESSO’S NEW WORLD EXPLORATIONS RANGE
Coffee lovers eager to discover the diverse coffee tastes of the world can now enjoy Nespresso World Explorations. The coffee range builds on the popular Lungo collection which showcases distinct coffees inspired by the cities of Cape Town, Tokyo, Stockholm, and Vienna, with the addition of two new cups inspired by Shanghai and Buenos Aires.
Inviting consumers on a journey that will enhance their tastes and enrich their coffee knowledge, the World Explorations range features the intense Cape Town Envivo Lungo and Stockholm Fortissio Lungo, as well as the more balanced Vienna Linizio Lungo and Tokyo Vivalto Lungo, with two new mild cups, Shanghai Lungo and Buenos Aires Lungo, inspired by the flavour profiles typical of these Asian and South American cities.
Commenting on the launch, Racha Chamseddin, Regional Business Development Manager, Nespresso Middle East and Africa said, “With lockdowns and restrictions due to the pandemic have left many desiring and eager to travel, Nespresso is introducing the next best thing. With the launch of the World Explorations range we bring the world of international coffee to the comforts and safety of coffee lovers’ homes. At the touch of a button, one can enjoy a cup of coffee that further enriches their tasting experience and coffee knowledge of flavours from across the globe.”
Celebrating traditional coffee moments from around the world like the Viennese coffee house culture, where coffee becomes part of a special trip and is enjoyed idly from morning ‘til night, or Argentina’s Merienda coffee break, observed late in the afternoon alongside sweet and savoury snacks, Nespresso World Explorations captures the sensations, tastes and aromas of some of the world’s most admired cities.

World Explorations Shanghai Lungo
Recognising China’s newly developed modern coffee scene, Nespresso’s World Exploration Shanghai Lungo captures the emerging Asian coffee culture with a distinctive light roast blend that combines Kenyan, Chinese, and Indonesian Arabicas. The berry notes and fine acidity of the coffee is best enjoyed as a longer cup to appreciate the drinking experience like a local.
World Explorations Buenos Aires Lungo
In a nod to Argentina’s vibrant food scene where sweetness prevails, Nespresso’s World Explorations Buenos Aires Lungo blends a gently roasted Colombian Arabica with Ugandan Robusta, to deliver distinct cereal and sweet popcorn notes. Paying tribute to the city’s love for smooth long cups characterised by a sweet, milky flavour, it is best served with a generous drop of milk and sugar.
World Explorations Cape Town Envivo Lungo
Reflecting South Africa’s preference towards Asian coffees, which have shaped local tastes over time, Nespresso’s World Explorations Cape Town Envivo Lungo blends Indian Arabica and Robusta to deliver an intense and full bodied Lungo with a punchy, bitter note and woodsy aroma. Unfold the coffee’s smooth roasted notes with a splash of milk to enjoy it like a local.
World Explorations Stockholm Fortissio Lungo
Taking consumers on a leisurely wander through Stockholm, Nespresso’s World Explorations Stockholm Fortissio Lungo recreates the aromatic profile of a Swedish coffee by coupling Monsooned Malabar with Colombian Arabica for an intense, sweet cup with a hint of bitterness. To taste this cup like a true Swede, we suggest serving this flavourful coffee with friends and family over a plate of cinnamon rolls.
