THE NAME
Rivelia is a variation from the Latin verb “revelo”, meaning to reveal, unveil, discover.
It’s easy to pronounce and it recalls the exploration and new possibilities enabled by the coffee machine.
It may also remind the name of a woman: this choice is consistent with the main naming strategy of other De'Longhi coffee machines.
Fun fact:
After 2 months of research, Rivelia was discussed with the De'Longhi Team in a list of 25 proposals, but it took another whole year to came to life (legal steps included).
