One of the flavors in our first pack is Envivo Lungo. I can't find it on any of the charts. I would like to know the intensity of this flavor. Thanks.
Administrator Note:
Intensity: 9
Origin: Envivo Lungo is a blend of green coffees from two origins, India and Mexico.

The Arabica and the Robusta parts are roasted separately and dark to deliver high intensity with refined taste and a full body. The Robusta split is roasted longer and darker.

Just an idea for Anna ..You can buy "re-usable" pods from Amazon.. Perhaps you can get your favourite Chai Tea leaves and fill the pod up and try it??
Administrator Note:
Thanks for that Adam, great idea.

Does Nespresso offer tea flavors? The machine is great for Lattes, and it would be great to have a Chai Tea latte.
Administrator Note:
Unfortunately not at the present time.
