How convenient to find these on here! I love a variety pack but the Blonde roast is my favorite and I can never find it for Nespresso. The coffee tastes so delicious and each pod really does make a strong cup. The blonde roast has a nutty finish to it that is so delectable. The dark roasts are great for making espresso drinks when you're craving that heavy bold caffeine rush.

These pods are spot on to taste of Starbucks. The are extremely fresh and when you buy in bulk you save money. The caffeine content is what you get at Starbucks and it is so easy to use in my espresso machine.

This Starbucks by Nespresso Vertuo Iced Blonde is what summer mornings were missing. It’s light, smooth, and perfectly balanced—no harsh bite, no burnt aftertaste, just clean, refreshing coffee that actually likes being iced. Brew it over ice and it doesn’t taste watered down or sad like some coffees do. Instead, it stays bright and flavorful, with a subtle sweetness that doesn’t need sugar to be enjoyable (though it plays very nicely with a splash of milk). If you’re someone who loves iced coffee but hates that aggressive bitterness, this is your go-to pod. It’s easy, consistent, and tastes like something you’d pay way too much for at a coffee shop—except you’re wearing pajamas. Highly recommend for iced coffee fans and warm-weather caffeine addicts alike.

Love that the blonde espresso is offered in pods! Now I can make my lattes like a pro! Delicious. Comes in three 20-packs. Keep in mind these are not coffee pods they are the smallest size - espresso.

I’ve been using these in my nespresso machine for my morning protein coffee and it’s perfect. Saves me time and money from not only going to Starbucks but also the slightly more expensive brand name pods.

I love Starbucks espresso, Nepresso pods, but I am not a fan of having to drop $65 on them. I was able to snag the iced vanilla pack on sale for $30ish, so that alone was great. I wasn't sure what to expect from the vanilla flavor, but I was pleasantly surprised. With oatmilk or a light chocolate milk, the espresso flavor was complemented really well by the vanilla. If these go on sale again, I will definitely be repurchasing.
