Flavour notes

About this coffee

Origin

Classic Arabica varieties and a special approach to post-harvesting processing deliver the elegant acidity and jammy character of this Q-Grade coffee.

Roasting

This coffee is roasted using the split-roast technique, with the average short time and low temperature, making this a particularly light roast. Most of the coffee is in the first split (lighter) and a small proportion in the second, darker split to add some intensity.

Ratings

Community feedback

from 1 opinion Limited evidence — treat as indicative only.

Summary of what people say: This capsule for Vertuo leans strongly toward jammy fruit and floral notes, with a smooth body that works both black and with a small splash of oat milk. The profile is vivid rather than restrained, making it a good choice when a coffee with clear fruit character is wanted.

  • Vivid jammy fruit character
  • Clear floral notes
  • Smooth black or with oat milk

What people say

  • I’m trying it this morning for the first time for vertuo. It is delicious—the fruity and floral notes dominate (very jammy), and it is very smooth. I tried it both black and with a splash of oat milk, and both were magnificent.

Common questions

What is the intensity of Papua New Guinea?

Papua New Guinea has an intensity of 4 on the manufacturer's scale and is intended for a Coffee (230 ml) cup size.

Which machines does Papua New Guinea fit?

Papua New Guinea is a Vertuo capsule and fits Vertuo machines only. Vertuo and Original capsules are physically different and are not interchangeable. The official store also sells a Original capsule under the name Papua New Guinea. They are different products with the same name, so check which line a pack is for before buying: this page covers the Vertuo one.

Is Papua New Guinea a capsule or a coffee pod?

Both words describe the same thing. The manufacturer calls them capsules, and English-language stores also say coffee pods; Papua New Guinea is one sealed portion of ground coffee either way. This site says "capsule" throughout only for consistency — searching for "Papua New Guinea pods" and "Papua New Guinea capsules" will find the same coffee.

What does Papua New Guinea taste like?

The published flavour notes for Papua New Guinea are cocoa, complex, floral, flowery, fruity, fruity and complex.

What cup size is Papua New Guinea brewed at?

Storefronts list Papua New Guinea at Coffee (230 ml).

Can Papua New Guinea be brewed shorter and stronger for a milk drink?

On Vertuo machines with Coffee Creations the same capsule brews a shorter, stronger cup, intended as the base for iced and milk drinks. It is an extra mode, not the only one these machines have: a normal cup is still one press. On Vertuo Next, Pop, Pop+, Lattissima and Creatista you turn it on by pressing the coffee button twice — it blinks turquoise, the mode applies to that cup only, and the machine goes back to brewing normally afterwards; Vertuo Up has a dedicated Coffee Creations button, and there the mode stays on until the machine is switched off. The size steps down one place: an Espresso capsule brews as a Ristretto (25 ml), Double Espresso and Gran Lungo brew as an Espresso (40 ml), and a Mug capsule brews as a Double Espresso (80 ml). The machine refuses the mode for Ristretto, Cold Brew Style and Carafe capsules — the mode switches off again and the barcode size is brewed — and Nespresso does not recommend it for Alto or the Coffee+ range. In the rare case that the double press does nothing, try updating the machine’s firmware from the Nespresso app. Older Vertuo models, including Vertuo Plus, brew only the size written in the barcode.
