How to Pick the Perfect Nespresso to Gift (Yourself!) This Christmas

Nespresso is now in Cebu, but if you're overwhelmed with their machines, here's a handy guide to choosing what works for you.

From its beginning in 1986, Nespresso’s goal to bring the highest quality coffee and the richest aromas in all varieties, has redefined and revolutionized the way millions of people enjoy their espresso coffee and shaped the global coffee culture. At a touch of a button, Nespresso machines with their smart technology and sleek design, deliver exceptional coffee cup after cup.

With the increasing influence of coffee culture in the region, Nespresso arrives in Ayala Center Cebu to elevate brews for coffee lovers who seek premium, high-quality taste.

“We believe that this newly-opened boutique will give our customers the full sensorial experience of discovering new coffees and the stories behind each capsule, shopping for their favorite blend, and introducing their friends and family to the Nespresso lifestyle,” says Patrick Pesengco, the Managing Director of Novateur Coffee Concept.

The new Nespresso retail environment surrounds guests in an immersive coffee experience allowing for deeper learning and coffee exploration. Throughout the boutique, visitors will experience elements that reflect Nespresso’s deep commitment to sustainability and adherence to a circular economy – one that is restorative by nature and works to minimize waste through careful design. The boutique boasts local furniture designed by Kenneth Cobonpue – a Filipino industrial designer known for his unique designs integrating natural materials through innovative handmade production processes.

The brand further solidifies its commitment to sustainable business practices by incorporating a recycling corner at the boutique, encouraging patrons to drop off their used Nespresso aluminum capsules at the store to be repurposed later into common household items. 

Here are four Nespresso machines to check out at the new boutique in Ayala Center Cebu.

The Essenza Mini

When you want to get the job done, Nespresso’s smallest machine, the Essenza Mini will brew you the perfect cup of espresso without taking up a lot of counter real estate space. It’s a great entry into the world of Nespresso machines.

The Inissia

When you still want to keep things simple, but do a whole lot more, opt for the Nespresso Inissia instead. The larger water reservoir means you can brew up to nine single-serve cups of your favorite espresso before needing a refill.

The Lattissima One

When you want to level up your coffee game with milk-based drinks without an extra accessory, the Latissima One will be your new best friend. Besides Nespresso’s coffee-making abilities, it has a removable milk reservoir as well as one-touch milk-based recipes—perfect for those latte lovers out there.

The Atelier

When you want the versatility of a full-featured coffee machine without the bulk, choose the Nespresso Atelier. With a touch of a button, it can make you hot or iced coffee—including milk-based ones—and even offers the option of crafting foam for a truly aesthetic drink
