Starbucks coffee lovers now have another option to try at stores this month, in celebration of International Coffee Day which fell on the first of the month. Starbucks’ newest Starbucks Milano Duetto is one coffee blend, expressed through two, bold contrasting roasts: the Starbucks Milano Sole and Starbucks Milano Luna. These two new roasts are now available at Starbucks stores in the U.S. and around the world, available for enjoyment throughout October. Here’s what to know about the two new roasts:

  • Starbucks Milano Sole: This light roast coffee was crafted in honor of the vibrant Milanese coffee culture. The Milano Sole roasts feature low-to-medium acidity levels, and medium body, and also boast notes of creamy vanilla custard, nutmeg, and sweet pomegranate.
  • Starbucks Milano Luna: If you prefer a dark roast coffee, this blend adds to the heritage of Starbucks’ roasting. This medium-to-full body roast displays bold notes of dark chocolate truffle and roasted black walnut.

Starbucks‘ new release of Starbucks Milano Duetto roasts is inspired by diversity, tradition, and innovation. Executive Vice President Global Coffee and Sustainability Michelle Burns notes that these two new roasts were inspired by Milan’s rich coffee culture. With Starbucks’ 50+ years of coffee history, this limited-release, special edition coffee offers something new for coffee lovers to explore. If you want to try either of these new roasts, head to any Starbucks location and order them as freshly brewed coffee or a cup of pour over coffee. If you fall in love — be sure to check out the bags of whole-bean coffee that you can purchase for home brewing too.

Coffee molds: What’s really inside your coffee?
All about mycotoxins
Whole beans and ground coffee

Imagine you open a package of cheese from your fridge to find something green and fuzzy growing on it. Your immediate reaction (beyond saying "ew") probably involves throwing it in the trash immediately. Molds on foods come in all varieties, yet not all are visible to the naked eye, such as mycotoxins.

Coffee molds are one example, which could be living on your coffee beans without you even knowing. These toxic compounds are odorless and invisible and can only be identified through lab testing. Do you know what's inside your cup of coffee? Most of us don't know if our coffee has mold. Here's what you should know about coffee molds and how to avoid them.

Espresso lemonade? NESCAFÉ swears it’s summer’s best flavor combo
A new hack for your iced espresso routine
NESCAFÉ

Lemonade and espresso are two delicious beverages that I happen to love. At the same time, I never would have thought to combine these two drinks in any way, shape, or form. Just hearing the term "espresso lemonade" has my mind running a thousand different ways. Before trying this in the evening, my mind runs down the "immediate no" path pretty quickly.

At the same time, I recognize that creative individuals across social media have come up with some flavor combinations I once doubted but now love (like the viral sweet potato cottage cheese bowl). But will espresso lemonade become the trendy new coffee flavor combo of the summer? NESCAFÉ thinks so. Admittedly, I'm curious about the hype around this new flavor combination. Is it one of those things that you try once and then never go back to? Or, is it one of those things you didn't know you needed until you try it? If you'd like to try it for yourself, here's what NESCAFÉ suggests you'll need to create an espresso lemonade at home.
