A dark-roasted mug coffee that still finishes fruity

The darkest Vertuo mug coffee, with acidity rated 1 of 5

Scores higher on sourcing & certification.

• +Bitterness 4 of 5 with a fruity finish, which is a genuinely different proposition from the other two Vertuo mug capsules
• +Full taste panel published: bitterness, acidity and roastiness
• +Same $1.40 as Melozio and Stormio, so it is a taste choice not a budget one
• +230ml from one capsule with no setting to get wrong

• −No origin countries named at all, where Stormio names two
• −$1.40 a capsule with no bulk box on the Vertuo system
• −No decaf version
• −Sleeves of ten only, with no larger box at a lower price

• +Acidity rated 1 of 5, the lowest in the Vertuo range, which is what dark coffee drinkers are actually after
• +Both origin countries named, Nicaragua and Guatemala, where most Vertuo capsules name a region at best
• +All-Arabica, stated, rather than an unqualified blend
• +Same $1.40 as Melozio and Odacio, so choosing between them costs nothing

• −$1.40 a capsule, and Vertuo sells sleeves of ten and nothing larger
• −Acidity 1 of 5 means there is very little brightness to find
• −No decaf version of this capsule
• −Sleeves of ten only, with no larger box at a lower price
