Starbuks Nespresso Caffé Verona Ristretto is a dark roasted espresso where you can sense the roasted sweetness and the nuances of dark chocolate. Roasting degree 10/12. The story of this coffee is about true love and three different names. The coffee was developed in a Seattle restaurant in 1975 and was named Jake's Blend. The restaurant's customers liked coffee so much that we started selling it in our cafes with 80/20 names, according to the same recipe. The love for coffee was so great that we made it an official product and named coffee as Verona, after the city of love.
