Real Coffee at It's Best
»
I've been traveling for many years and tried the best coffee in many parts of the world. Places where coffee is considered much more that a hot beverage with flavor. When I came to live to the United States I wanted to find a gourmet coffee that I could regularly order and don't spend huge amounts of money. I've tried several commercial coffees, including Illy. This coffee gives you the best bang for the buck. I ordered other blends of Lavazza that I still have to try, but so far so good! I don't even get close to a Starbucks anymore.

YUMMMMMMM eeeeeeeee

This coffee is grrreat! Smooth and not a bad after taste. I am drinking it right now and was searching online to see where I could get another batch. My cousin just brought me some from italy and she is also inlove with it! Yes - the packaging is annoying but I have a coffee tin that I pour the grinds into so that is not a big issue for me.

Excellent espresso coffee without the bitterness
»
I use the Lavazza Qualita Oro beans in my Automatic Espresso machine. Subjectively, I believe it is the best choice out there. This coffee is pure Arabica beans, lots of body without the bitterness.
I have made a point of trying different types of espresso beans over the years. The trend tends to be towards over-roasted beans with bitter after-tastes, and this coffee avoids it. It is plenty strong, but roasted perfectly for espresso use, and avoids the bitterness. I don't like to add sugar to my coffee and this bean with a hint of sweet finish works great. It is also not too oily which keeps the machine internals happy.
When you order it with automatic subscription on Amazon, it is also an unbeatable deal. Perfect.

This is a very god coffee. No comparison to domestic brands. Of course for those who can appreciate the difference.

Tried many, but always come back...

For those on the fence regarding whether or not to try this, I add my "nod" to the rest. We use a super-automatic and every cup is perfect with this bean. We are not purists, but we like what we like... I just subscribed for the ongoing shipments and am so glad to have all of the shopping around behind me.
