April 8, 20251 yr I read recently that a number of factors have negatively affected the price of coffee - meaning your morning cuppa is going to cost more, perhaps even considerably more. As a convert to Nespresso machines (yes, I know: the coffee is not quite as tasty as that freshly ground but it is much more convenient for me), I noticed in January that my favourite flavour had risen by around 12%. Seeing thereafter that the price of wholesale arabica beans has doubled in a year and that ground roast coffee in the USA was at an all-time high, I decided to buy more now. Droughts and weather-related factors in Brazil have seen a drop in exports of 11.3%. In Vietnam a drop of 39.5%. Added to the effects of climate change, here in Asia there has been a substantial increase in drinking coffee in China. As I result, I recently was back at Nespresso buying 300 more capsules. https://caffeinespots.com/news/why-coffee-prices-in-thailand-just-got-more-expensive/

Nespresso lost quality around 5 years ago.

I have never seen Nespresso capsules in Starbucks, but will check, thanks. On the other hand, I tried out many Nespresso flavours before I finally found one I really like. That is the only one I purchase.

I'm not sure if they are on sale in cofe-shops tho, I buy in e-shops
April 8, 20251 yr Jardin with chocolate flavor is OK too, and in any cases better than chocolate flavor from Nespresso, but is not so good as Starbucks. Intensity 8.
April 8, 20251 yr I don't want to spoil anybody's fun but I have cousin who makes out living from repairing household appliances. With great certainty he told me ' if you ever saw how those coffee machines look inside you would never drink coffee from them again"
