And I can always taste the distinctive kick form Starbucks in the finished cup.One last comment for the price: I have added this product to my wishlist when it was priced at £20+ (can't remember exactly) and my recommendation is do NOT buy this if it's priced at more than £18 because it's simply OVERPRICED at that level, nothing to do with quality. Keep it in your wishlist or subscribe to get extra discounts.In the end, it's a lovely coffee full of strength and aroma and I will always come back to it.

This was a repeat order which arrived on time in good condition. I have not yet started on this batch but have no reason to believe it will not be as excellent as always.

I have been using this for an old De Longhi coffeee machine without an issue and the coffee strength and flavour are great.Now I have a Jura coffee machine and they specifically state that I should not use oliy beans which these are, so I have stopped buying them. Apparently the oily beans could gum up the grinder. Its a shame as other non-oily beans taste weak by comparison.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculous price rise

I have had these beans on subscription for a long time with no complaints. They have a great flavour and were a god price. This month i found my next delivery had been put up by over £10. It's a ridiculous price rise and I have now cancelled and will buy elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value for money

Not sure why but the price has jumped up from £26 to over £46 so will be cancelling my subscription. Shame as nice coffee and been buying it for over 2 years

Por supuesto el tueste es natural. Leer en español ya que la palabra torrefatto italiana sólo significa tostado no que ha sido tostado con azucar. Repito es tueste natural.

Unser Lieblingskaffee

h. · 4 April 2024

Sehr kräftig, sehr lecker. Wenn auch völlig überteuert. Die dunklen, öligen Bohnen riechen manchmal leicht angebrannt, aber der Geschmack ist klasse, wenn man gerne starken, würzigen Kaffee oder Espresso trinkt. Bis jetzt wurden wir immer für unseren außerordentlich leckeren Kaffee gelobt, dass heißt, der Geschmack fällt tatsächlich positiv auf und unterscheidet sich deutlich von den normalen Supermarktkaffees.Unsere Kaffeemaschine hat auch keine Problem mit der Zubereitung, also kein verklebtes Mahlwerk, keine Steine usw.Einzig, dass das Produkt in Deutschland von Nestlé vertreiben wird, stört uns, mangels vergleichbarer Alternativen nehmen wir das aber in Kauf und schämen uns (ein wenig) dafür.

Ottimo caffè

L.B. · 10 January 2021

Usato con macchina automatica Philips serie 5000 macinatura media risulta ottimo, credo uno dei migliori che abbiamo mai usato tra le più di 40 miscele o più provate nel tempo, siamo rimasti stupiti, perché risulta bilanciato in tutti gli aspetti e pur essendo arabica non ha quella punta di acidulò che a molti risulta fastidiosa.I chicchi come potete vedere da foto allegata, sono grossi e quasi tutti della stessa dimensione (pochi anche gli spezzati o rotti) la tostatura è molto forte tipica dei paesi nordici, ma fatta in maniera eccellente e non frettolosa , così che non abbia nessun sentore di bruciato o amaro, anzi risulta dolcemente caramellato.I chicchi sono molto,unti quasi da lascare residuo nel sacchetto e sulle mani, ciò è un bene, perché significa che hanno utilizzato chicchi pregiati e soprattutto recenti e che anche impacchettamento e distribuzione sono state rapide. I pacchetti da 200 grammi risultano ottimi perché non rimane così caffe in giro per troppo tempo e quindi ogni volta che si usa il prodotto lo si troverà sempr al top senza degrado dovuto alla lenta ossidazione di aria e luce.Costo equiparabile a marche ottime, e ci sta tutto vendendo il prodotto (al netto del sapore che può non essere amato da tutti dato che il caffè è una cosa molto personale). per che dice che è caro e lo cerca di confrontare alle marche discount o commerciali, dico solo che il caffè se è buono si gusta con più piacere, e quindi meglio una tazzina in meno ma un prodotto che appaga.Provato anche in cappucccini e macchiati e credo che il top questa miscela lo raggiunga con il latte macchiato, il caramellato del,caffe si sposa perfettamente con il latte schiumato, una spolverata di cacao o cannella e avrete il top.
