What Is Lavazza Espresso Lungo Nespresso?
Lavazza Espresso Lungo is a Nespresso‑compatible capsule crafted to deliver a longer espresso experience. Unlike a short espresso shot, a lungo uses more water, resulting in a larger cup with a slightly different flavor profile.
Defining traits of Lavazza Espresso Lungo:
- Format – Nespresso OriginalLine compatible capsule.
- Serving Size – Designed for a 110 ml (3.7 fl oz) lungo extraction.
- Coffee Origin – A blend of Arabica and Robusta beans.
- Purpose – Balanced caffeine with a smoother, less concentrated taste.
- Convenience – Single‑serve brewing for consistency and speed.
This makes Lavazza Espresso Lungo a versatile choice for those who want a longer coffee without the heaviness of a full mug of drip coffee.
Flavor Profile and Roast Level
The flavor of Lavazza Espresso Lungo is carefully balanced to suit the larger serving size. The roast level ensures that the coffee remains aromatic and flavorful even when brewed with more water.
Flavor and roast highlights:
- Roast Level – Medium to medium‑dark roast.
- Aroma – Notes of dried fruit and subtle cocoa.
- Body – Smooth and rounded, lighter than a ristretto or espresso.
- Acidity – Mild, with a clean finish.
- Aftertaste – Lingering chocolate and nutty tones.
This profile makes it approachable for daily drinking, offering both richness and drinkability in a longer cup.
How Much Caffeine per Capsule of Lavazza Espresso Lungo
Each Lavazza Espresso Lungo capsule contains a moderate amount of caffeine, comparable to other Nespresso lungo pods.
Caffeine per capsule details:
- Per Capsule (110 ml lungo) – 75–95 mg caffeine
- Espresso Shot (40 ml, if brewed short) – 55–65 mg caffeine
- Double Capsule (220 ml) – 150–190 mg caffeine
- Comparison – A standard 8 oz drip coffee has 95 mg caffeine.
This means a single lungo capsule provides a caffeine boost similar to a regular cup of coffee, but in a smaller, more concentrated serving.
Caffeine Content by Cup Size and Brewing Style
The amount of caffeine extracted depends on how you brew the capsule. Using more or less water changes the concentration, though the total caffeine remains similar.
Caffeine by cup size:
- Ristretto (25 ml / 0.85 oz) – 50–60 mg caffeine
- Espresso (40 ml / 1.35 oz) – 55–65 mg caffeine
- Lungo (110 ml / 3.7 oz) – 75–95 mg caffeine
- Double Lungo (220 ml / 7.4 oz) – 150–190 mg caffeine
The lungo style is designed to balance flavor and caffeine, making it a popular choice for those who want a longer coffee without over‑intensity.
Caffeine by Ounce and Serving Size Explained
Breaking caffeine down by ounce helps compare Lavazza Espresso Lungo to other coffee drinks.

- Half Cup (2 oz) – 40–50 mg caffeine
- Standard Lungo (3.7 oz) – 75–95 mg caffeine
