About Nespresso Barista Creations Bianco Forte
Nespresso Barista Creations Bianco Forte is a dark-roasted, intense Mug-size coffee specifically crafted to pair perfectly with milk. It is made from a blend of Colombian and Kenyan Arabica beans that deliver a rich, cereal-forward flavour profile designed to punch right through the sweetness of milk.
When you add milk to Bianco Forte, the aromatic coffee character of this long cup really pushes through the sweetness of the milk. We took our inspiration from the baristas in Melbourne — they are the masters of robust, but exquisitely balanced tastes. Their roasting and blending lend an aromatic power that sings through milk. To orchestrate this ideal marriage, we searched far and wide for just the right blend and carefully designed the coffee’s roast parameters.
Important: Bianco Forte is only compatible with Nespresso Vertuo machines. It is not compatible with Original Line machines.

Origin and Story
Nespresso Barista Creations Bianco Forte is crafted from a blend of Colombian and Kenyan Arabicas. How many different blends of coffee origins are there? Countless. But Nespresso could not leave the marriage of coffee and milk to chance. They chose Colombian and Kenyan Arabicas to hit that harmonious composition of tastes and aromas that land with precise balance when you add milk.
Finding a synergy between coffee and milk is not easy. That is why Nespresso’s dedicated team of Coffee Experts from various departments have been working for years to create delicious pairings of coffees suitable for milk. It all starts with the beans — the various origins of coffee contain different aromatic profiles and aromas. For Bianco Forte, they selected Arabicas from Colombia and Kenya for their ability to offer this intriguing aromatic complexity.
The roasting parameters have a significant impact on the final coffee and on the alchemy with milk. The art of roasting calls for a fine balance of temperature, roast time and bean colour. Getting it just right is key to hitting that great harmony of coffee and milk. Nespresso tested lots of combinations until they discovered that to get that ideal flavour balance of Bianco Forte with milk, they needed a dark split roast. One part of the blend gets a long and dark roast; the other part roasts a little faster and to a slightly lighter colour.
Aromatic Profile
