New Nespresso limited edition coffee draws on wine-making technique
Apr 3, 2012 6
(Nestle) - Nestlé’s premium portioned coffee brand Nespresso has developed a technique similar to that used to produce fine wine, to create its new limited edition Grand Cru coffee Naora.
Specially selected Colombian Castillo coffee bean ‘cherries’ are left to mature on the plant until the last possible moment, giving them a distinct taste.
The ‘late harvest’ technique requires tight control of growing conditions to ensure the beans are picked when they have reached optimum maturity.
Even a few days delay past that point can affect the taste and mean the whole harvest is wasted.
