Nestle's Nespresso has relaunched its popular Grand Cru coffee in a limited edition variety called Tribute to Milano.

Made to reflect the rich history and culture within Milan, the coffee is a blend of Arabica and Robusta beans that results in a balance of “fine fruity aromas and sweet cereal notes”, according to the company.

Nespresso coffee ambassador Mitch Monaghan says Australians have a love for a more intense coffee and discovering new coffee cultures.

“Originally launched in 2015, bringing back the Limited Edition Tribute to Milano is our way of showing our customers we know what they love,” he says.

Tribute to Milano is best enjoyed as a Ristretto of 20ml, he says.

The Tribute to Milano Limited Edition Grand Cru has a mild bitterness and acidity with a rounded body and high intensity.

Recommended retail price is $9.30 for a sleeve of 10 capsules.
