Lavazza produces the best espresso beans according to me. Someone was complaining against the quality - may be the packs that you bought were too old and yes- generally espresso does upset sensitive stomach, that does not indicate bad quality of coffee beans. I am from Europe and can say that Starbucks coffee is not to my taste, I have to agree with Mr.Hernandes. The bitter taste that they achieve has blends and notes of something quite different than the normal espresso bitterness.
This is a very good deal on a high quality Espresso roast. Grind it very, Very, VERY fine and you won't be disappointed.
It is really the best espresso experience. Really thick crema. Better than Illy, Starbucks (greasy yuck). What I feel is way too expensive for a bag of coffee.But I pump one espresso aday, so I think it's worth it. I keep it in a deep freezer bag once opened, and my daily stash in my old Illy tin (that I have a ton of).
This is about the worst expresso coffee i have tried.Was looking to see a dark Italian roasted coffee but it is not a true dark roast. The color is brown-tan and does not even taste like an expresso. I use a Gaggia Baby machine for many years and have tried many different coffees including other Lavazzas but this is a poor excuse for an Italian type expresso. Starbucks is better, and that is a stretch.AL.
Have been a fan of Lavazza for several years. Had been cheating and using the Gran Crema espresso pods with our latte machine. Thought I should try using the whole beans and grinding myself to reduce the packaging that I was contributing to the landfills. I miss the convenience of the pods but the taste is just as good and it has the desired effect of waking me up and making me tolerable in the world's view.
