Wazzup Pilipinas!?
For over 30 years, Nespresso’s innovations have redefined the way that millions of people around the world enjoy their coffee, growing from a ground-breaking idea in Switzerland to a global brand that’s made its mark in 81 countries and counting.
At the touch of a button, customers in homes, offices, hotels, restaurants, and cafés now enjoy high-quality, sustainably produced coffee, cup after cup.
Nespresso has always made ways to bring all the best things about coffee—cozy, convenient, and most importantly, café-quality—together in one place: at home. Now, their newest range can take you back to the root of the roast, while also allowing you to explore the endless possibilities inside every little capsule.
Last February 9, Nespresso proudly introduced its revolutionary Vertuo line of machines and coffee capsules, which steps up the at-home coffee game to café levels with each of its unique features. The exclusive media launch was held at Ember, Greenbelt 3, with the menu customized and curated by chef-owner Josh Boutwood. The whole dining experience was crafted to highlight the rich, full-bodied flavors that Nespresso is known for.
Melissa Valdez, Commercial and Marketing Head at Novateur, says, “We love working with [Chef Josh] because he really understands the ethos of Nespresso; he is passionate about elevating experiences, transforming ingredients into extraordinary dishes with an innovative sense of craftsmanship.”
Hosts David Celdran and Migs Bustos welcomed guests and invited them to explore all the ways in which Nespresso elevates the at-home coffee experience. To demonstrate what that might look like, Nespresso Coffee Ambassador JR Abril walked guests through the Vertuo’s capabilities; the new array of flavors, brewing styles, and cup sizes; the one-touch system that automatically recognizes different capsules and sets the appropriate brewing parameters; and Nespresso’s patented Centrifusion technology, which gets more out of every pod, resulting in a cup brimming with aroma, flavor, and a rich, thick crema—a strong indicator of quality coffee.
“We’re particularly excited about [Vertuo],” says Patrick Pesengco, Managing Director of Novateur. “The actual device is so intuitive and sleek, but we also feel that the range i’s a step in the right direction in terms of coffee appreciation, especially with the expanded range of roasts and flavors. This will definitely be a welcome addition in homes across the Philippines.”
Former Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach graced the event to talk about her love of the brand, going so far as to gift the machines to friends and becoming a regular face at her local Nespresso boutique; she also makes it a point to have a machine around on when working, declaring it essential. Diver and digital creator Cha Ocampo, also a Nespresso fan, shared with those in attendance her own experience with the convenience and variety of options the brand brings to her multifaceted lifestyle, from diving to at-home dining.
“I’ve been a huge fan of Nespresso for a long time, and I’m not shy about it! I’m so pleased to be working with them and I can’t wait for people to try Vertuo for themselves,” says Wurtzbach.
