Lavazza brings single-serve espresso tablets to the U.S.

Lavazza is introducing its Tablì brewing system in the U.S., a coffee tablet product designed to make espresso with a dedicated machine. The launch follows an earlier rollout in Italy and is part of the company’s push to expand its presence in North America. The tablets are made from 100% coffee and come in several varieties, including espresso, decaf, super crema, and lungo. Lavazza says the system took years of development and multiple patents to bring to market, and it is positioning the product as a premium option for coffee drinkers. The company is also framing the launch around sustainability, arguing that some consumers are looking for alternatives to traditional singleserve pods. Tablì is set for a U.S. launch in August, with a preorder bundle already available on Lavazza’s website.
