Peru Organic, the first certified organic coffee by Nespresso, was officially launched in KSA on Wednesday, June 9. The virtual B2B event introduced the latest addition to the Professionals Origin range, a single-origin coffee sourced exclusively in Peru. The revamp of the Nespresso Professional Origins range marks an important milestone for Nespresso, which is presenting its first 100-percent organic coffee. Indeed, Peru Organic — which has been in development since 2019 — specifically caters to the growing number of consumers who have made organic coffee a fundamental part of their lifestyle.
During the interactive session, the audience learned about the unique characteristics and taste profile of Peru Organic, its story and why the product is unlike any other. Renowned international chef and restaurateur Maroun Chedid created a vegetable velouté and saffron cappuccino using Peru Organic, showcasing its richness and versatility. “Nespresso never ceases to surprise us with coffee moments and journeys that take us to exotic places. This recipe was created exclusively to celebrate and accentuate the remarkable flavor of Peru Organic: its fruitiness, acidity and depth,” said Chef Maroun Chedid. The decorated chef also emphasized that great gastronomy experiences always end with the best coffee: Nespresso.
Coffee specialist and barista Karim Hosni also highlighted the attributes of Peru Organic. Using the Aguila 220 machine, Mr. Hosni demonstrated how to make an almond and white mocha latte using Peru Organic. “It is great to be able to enjoy Peru Organic in KSA. It really is an excellent product that will bring so much pleasure to local coffee enthusiasts,” he said.
With Peru Organic, Nespresso has strengthened its commitment to organic farming and sustainable practices.
