Sendero | Compatible for Original Nespresso® Pods | Peru | 100 Compostable Specialty Coffee Capsules | Ethical & Fair Trade…

I bought these for my Krups Nespresso machine. Overall I am very pleased. The flavours are pleasant, not as powerful/intense as Nespresso, but then those were at times quite overpowering. The pods are of similar dimension, although because they are not metal are not as slick to load. I have found that a touch of water around the sides of the pod adds a little lubricant, easing the process. Not being metal, the puncture holes seem to be a little larger allowing some of the coffee grit through. This is not a problem with the cup of coffee it produces, just more noticable when you look at the used-pods and water drain. I havent had these in my compost bin long enough to see if they are compostable! I bought the variety set, All were sensible flavours, I will buy again.

Edit: putting from 1 to 3, maybe in part because I have started to get used to the flavour. I still wouldn't order it again.*****I had to go and read the packaging to make sure I was using my Nespresso machine correctly for these, because I genuinely cannot believe the reviews others have left, other than one German chap.I would recommend that instead of buying these, you buy literally anything else. These must be the worst pods I have bought to date. I'm sure the coffee itself is probably fine, but I cannot enjoy it at all, for the sake of the overpowering recyclable packaging flavour. I've tried a few different things, but I just cannot avoid that flavour. If you make a ristretto shot, you are just drinking hot water. If you have an espresso shot, it is stronger, but just not a pleasant taste. If someone can explain how they are making this delicious coffee please do let me know.I saw someone compare these to the Nespresso capsules. They are absolutely nothing like the Nespresso capsules, which are beautiful (but expensive). I pretty much bought these for simple disposal, to save me cleaning out the aluminium pods for recycling (because you guys know you can recycle those things right...?), but if they taste like this then what's the point. I'll go back to scraping and washing the pods.

Best pods I've ever bought.Exactly what I was looking for!!I was sick of cleaning pods to make them recyclable and other compostable ones I tried before didn’t taste good at all.These pods are great! Suuuper creamy, Loving the aftertaste after every sip.I wasn't sure how long to run them on the nespresso machine but the back of the pack had the correct measurements!! Now I keep it short and sweet for a better taste! Perfect, thanks Sendero!!I was so happy to see that the capsules are compatible with the original nespresso because I have one of the older ones and some capsules I've bought before haven't worked in it.Hassle free, great tasting pods! Love that I can just throw them in the food waste bin without worrying. Always look forward to my morning coffees!!

I’m rather fussy when I comes to coffee but I also struggled with using the non biodegradable and non recyclable pods most of the good nespresso compatible coffees come in. I thought I will give Sendero a try since these pods were biodegradable and I have to say I was really pleasantly surprised. The coffee is a really good quality. It is really yummy! I particularly enjoyed the Colombian one, but all the ones I tried so far were really nice. It’s a winner for me! I will be coming back for more.

Delicious coffee, beautiful boxes and info on tasting notes/origins. Works a dream in 2 different models of nespresso machines I’ve tried them in. Love the fact that it’s compostable. A lovely product as well as a fine cup of coffee! My regular go to - I wouldn’t go back to nespresso caps now as Sendero tastes much better and is less harmful to the earth.

Best pods I ever bought.I was tired of cleaning the pods to make them recyclable and many compostable ones i tried didn’t have the right taste for me.Taste great and with good crema. Loving the aftertaste after every sip.I had to check the back of packaging for correct measurement as I wasn’t sure how long to run on Nespresso machine. Now, I keep it short and sweet for better taste.It was helpful to see that it is compatible for original Nespresso as I bought wrong ones before.Highly recommended!

This is very delicious espresso coffee, and makes an excellent cup of Americano. They have sourced high-quality coffee and toasted it just right and the coffee is rich and aromatic. Plus you can compost it, meaning it won't pollute the planet. I think I've found my nespresso machine coffee capsules.

Great coffee pods, and guilt free indeed. I have been drinking their coffee pods since the lockdown and I genuinely believe it is a good replacement to the Nespresso coffee. It might not look having as much crema as Nespresso but for sure it is comparable. I won’t say which is better but the environmental factor does tip over the choice. I do highly recommend it. I also put the capsule in my compost and it works after a few months.
