French Lavender and Vanilla Decaffeinato
Flavored, decaf and seasonal: lavender and vanilla in a light-roast Vertuo mug. Notes read vanilla, fruity, cereal and sweet. A treat for the evening, and grab it while it's around.
Pick it if vanilla, fruity and cereal sound good to you; you want decaf.
Best for Vertuo owners who want a flavored decaf for evenings
See French Lavender and Vanilla Decaffeinato →Bold Blend
A Vertuo mug-size pod with caramel, biscuity and malt notes, and the listing marks it as flavored with caramel and biscuit. Intensity 5 on Nespresso's scale and a light roast, so it's milder than the name might suggest. Ten pods per pack.
Pick it if caramel, biscuity and malt sound good to you.
Best for Vertuo owners who want a sweet, gentle mug
