A special new coffee inspired by Tokyo

Nespresso, where experts pour their passion into every step from cultivating coffee cherries to the moment of tasting. The brand now introduces "World Explorations," six permanent coffees that invite you on a journey through the tastes and cultures of cities worldwide.

Enjoyed as a Lungo (approx. 110ml), "World Explorations" expands to six varieties, with three new flavors joining three revamped existing Lungo coffees. The three new additions include "World Explorations Buenos Aires Lungo," with its sweet popcorn aroma and mild character, and "World Explorations Shanghai Lungo," a smooth, fruity blend of Arabica coffees, including those from China. Finally, there is "World Explorations Tokyo Vivalto Lungo," an exceptional taste befitting Tokyo's refined palate.

Notably, "World Explorations Tokyo Vivalto Lungo," to be released in Japan and other countries, is a coffee developed by Nespresso with deep respect for the flavors and traditional coffee culture cherished in Japan. It offers a bittersweet taste with subdued acidity, favored by many Japanese, and pairs beautifully with milk.

The three existing coffees, now refreshed, are also renamed to reflect popular global cities: Vienna, a hub of classical music; Stockholm, a center of Nordic coffee culture; and Cape Town, a modern city embraced by nature in South Africa.

"World Explorations" captures the coffee enjoyment, tastes, and aromas of global cities, from Vienna's coffeehouse culture, where coffee is savored leisurely from morning to night, to Argentina's "merienda," a coffee break enjoyed in the afternoon with sweets and snacks.

Indulge in these rich, distinctive flavors, inspired by unique cities: Tokyo in spring, with its blooming cherry blossoms; Buenos Aires, the vibrant capital of Argentina; and Shanghai, a modern metropolis embodying diversity and optimism.
