Illy Nespresso Forte coffee capsule review

Illy Nespresso Forte review: capsule & coffee cup

Illy Nespresso Forte is an extra bold roast espresso coffee capsule made with a blend of Arabica coffee beans.

ILLY NESPRESSO FORTE CAPSULE REVIEW

With a name like Forte, you know you should expect a strong coffee and this is exactly what Illy’s Nespresso compatible Forte capsule delivers. With a maximum intensity of 9 out of 9, Forte creates a straightforward dark roasted experience with a hint of chocolate which leaves you with a thick bitter and salty aftertaste. You might have guessed it, this is a capsule for no-nonsense espresso lovers and I would give it a 5-rating if it were for its body which I find too watery. A more unctuous texture should complement such bold flavors and if you’re really looking for illy perfection from the comfort of your home, the superior iperespresso machine and pods will bring you there.
