Obviously these beans were not roasted in the past few days, but there is still a little bit of freshness when you grind them ready for use,
If you found the taste of the 50/50 arabica/robusta lavazza rossa beans a little heavy, you might like the slightly lighter and cleaner taste of these 100% arabica beans.
Im a newbie to Bean to Cup so maybe im not best placed to review this. However I took it on subscribe and save and have left it on subscribe and save. Lavazza is a reputable brand and I am currently drinking the Lavazza Crema e Aroma and just ordered Lavazza Classico today. Value for money wise I cant see how you go wrong.
I love this coffee I get it on subscription but I do not like it being left on my doorstep, to receive delivery confirmation saying it was handed to resident! I tried to resolve this with Amazon through customer services and was fobbed off and given a number for an unrelated deliver company… not amused.
I’m an daily high street brand coffee drinker (SB). Been looking for a similar but stronger tasting one. Not quiet the same so I’ll have to try another type.
Son like it but I find a little too acidic for me.
Lavazza Espresso Italiano is a lighter roast than the others in this range
– a “medium” roast, and 100% Arabica
this allows more delicate flavours to come through, as they are not drowned by the darker roast and Robusta flavours that dominate Lavazza Espresso Aromatico and Lavazza Espresso Cremoso
I am a coffee addict and am a big fan of Lavazza beans. Have tried most of their range but these are my favourite with a nice strong smooth taste and good either for a quick Espresso or a Latte. They percolate nicely with a lovely aroma too.
After using various fresh roast coffee bean subscriptions over a number of years, I decided to see what the off the shelf offerings were like. I’ve since tried all of Lavazza’s varieties, plus Illy, Kimbo, SF Bay, Taylor’s, the big high street chain brands and pretty much every other bean I’ve found on supermarket shelves. These beans (Espresso Italiano Classico) are the stand out best and the closest I’ve found to my favourite fresh beans.
For espresso (18g in 36g out) on my Rancilio machine, the flavour is perfect. Strong in rich and well-rounded flavour without the overbearing bitterness of Rosso beans. I mostly drink flat whites and this is the perfect strength to cut through the milk with bold coffee flavour.
These beans also work incredibly well in Espresso Martini — a drink that is extremely sensitive to bad espresso, which can’t be fixed by simply using less. It took a long time to find off the shelf beans that work!
The only downside is the beans aren’t particularly amazing for cafetiere use. If that’s your main style then the extra punch of Rosso beans may be preferable.
I normally make 2 double espressos per day and the 1Kg bags last a month. This works out roughly half the cost of the cheapest subscription I had before. I’ve been through 4 bags of this so far and every bag has arrived in perfect condition, with a very long expiry date. Once opened I split the beans across 2 Airscape containers and there is very little degradation in quality, only requiring 1 or 2 finer grind adjustments to keep the extraction on point.
