    5.0 out of 5 stars A Rich and Flavorful Choice for Espresso Lovers!
    Lavazza Caffe Espresso Italiano Whole Bean Coffee Blend is a great value for the price. It is a medium roast coffee blend that is perfect for making espresso and espresso drinks. The coffee has a rich and well-rounded taste with a hint of sweetness and a pleasant acidity. The natural flavors of the arabica beans shine through without being overpowered by a dark roast.

    This coffee blend is made from 100% arabica beans and is non-GMO. It comes in a 2.2-pound bag and is packaged to ensure freshness. The coffee beans are whole and need to be ground before use to ensure maximum flavor.

    Overall, Lavazza Caffe Espresso Italiano Whole Bean Coffee Blend is a great choice for anyone who loves espresso. It is a high-quality coffee that is affordable and easy to use. I highly recommend it!

    5.0 out of 5 stars We look forward to our first cup of coffee
    We use these beans in our espresso machine and have it all dialed in. There is no bitterness, the aroma of the beans while brewing is devine and the crème in the end is perfection. They make for a very flavorful iced coffee as well. We have been purchasing these beans on subscription for about 6 months now and don’t have any desire to change.

    4.0 out of 5 stars My current daily driver
    This whole bean Lavazza Espresso is my daily driver for drip coffee (Breville precision). Also makes good espresso. Minus 1 star for two reasons:
    1) Not as good as your favorite locally roasted beans
    2) Freshness is not consistent. Its very good if you get lucky enough to receive a recently “manfucatured” date, but its only half decent if you are unlucky enough to receive an older bag. I estimate about half of the bags received were toward the fresher end of the freshness spectrum relative to the median 😉

    Also some bags are rectangular and tight (not as tight as vacuum packed), while others are completely loose, like if the bag allowed some air to leak in. I have not noted that this makes any difference in freshness.

    Despite those weaknesses, this is the best value in whole beans under $.50/oz that I’m aware of. At least for my taste.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Graet tasting
    I am big coffe drinker and very picky about coffee selection. This coffee is well roasted, great taste, balanced and smooth.
    This is my second batch.
    One thing to keep in mind, It is larger pack than your grocery store pkg. I usually store left overs in airtight container to keep freshness. It does well in tightly closed ziplock bag as well.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful way to start the day
    I have been around a long time and over the years have tried many different kinds and brands of coffee. I normally drink only one cup (actually two cups, 16 oz) and make it strong but it is not bitter. You must grind this whole bean coffee but for the work involved it’s worth it. For fifty years I did not like store-bought ground pepper. My son showed me what fresh ground whole peppers tasted like and “Oh, boy”. Old dog…new trick. This is excellent coffee.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Packaging and vacuum seal
    One of the bags had a coffee bean disrupting the closure so it was vacuum sealed. Also, what’s really annoying is taping the bags together by totally wrapping the circumference both bags with packaging tape. Totally unnecessary!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good Coffee Just not for me
    Very good coffee we used in our automatic espresso machine for many months. Only reason i gave four ⭐️s is because i found another Lavazza Whole Bean that had the “notes” i prefer. My spouse continues to LOVE this one, and i don’t hate it. I imagine most coffee drinkers would like whole bean Lavazza, espresso, 100% Aracica Coffee, Intensity 5/10.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lavazza beans always consistently flavorful
    Always enjoy Lavazza beans. The only question is why sometimes the bag is airtight while other times it’s like a balloon. I prefer to have it airtight to better preserve the flavor of the beans.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Quality control is dropping
    I have been drinking Lavazza Caffe Espresso Italiano Whole Bean Coffee Blend for well over a year and up until recently have enjoyed it a lot. But, starting about 4 months ago, I was receiving inconsistant bags of cofffee beans. The bags used to come vacuum sealed with no air inside of the bag, and the beans were very fresh. Now, all my orders the bag of beans are loose with a lot of air in the bags, and the beans are not fresh.

    Also, the roast quality is inconsistant, with some bags tasting over-roasted and some under-roasted. I hope Lavazza gets their quality control back. I’m going to have to try another brand.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre coffee at an exceptional price
    This coffee in respect to flavor is just okay. Its not that it is bad per se, but I find its flavor profile to be leaning more in the unpleasant side of the spectrum for my tastes. I prefer my espresso to be nutty, sweet, with subtle woody undertones. I don’t like event the slightest hint of any dissonant flavors. This coffee goes in the other direction being more earthy, slightly acidic, with strong dark chocolate undertones (like 80+% cacao dark chocolate). I can’t stand dark chocolate so I do not care for how this shot finishes for that reason alone. There is also a subtle acrid or burnt undertone which I find unbearable in all foods except barbecue. This may be okay if you plan on adding steamed milk or other flavorings, but in a pure shot comparison, I find this flavor profile to be less desirable and believe you can do MUCH better with other beans. I also found this coffee to be very temperamental and unforgiving as far as dialing in my machine. You must get the dose, grind, tamp, and brew pressure just right to get this in the sweet spot where it is not overwhelmingly bitter or sour. The window is smaller for this coffee than I have experienced with others, although that could be just the product of me trying to limit as much as possible the elements of the flavor profile that I don’t care for. Where this really shines is when you take the price into consideration. There is no better deal anywhere than this coffee. This is less than half the price of say Starbucks beans and about 1/3 the price of Illy beans. While Those brands taste much better in my opinion, I’m not ready to say that are 2-3x better. You really do get a stupid amount of espresso for the price. As for freshness, forget it. These are not optimal–as in 1-3 weeks old. They are about as fresh as any beans you could get in a super market. So overall… not great, not terrible, but an exceptional bargain.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive but worth the money
    I buy this coffee in the bean form for my home coffee maker. Just two people drinking coffee most of the time so it doesn’t break the bank. It is so good, can’t find another brand I like as well. It is reliably good. It might take you a few tries to get your bean to pot ratio just right. The flavor changes if you make it stronger or weaker, but it is always smooth and never bitter.

    Sometimes I change it up a bit (especially in the winter) with just a tiny tiny touch of cinnamon in the beans before they are ground. If you do too much, it isn’t good. It’s just like the essence of cinnamon but not the intense flavor. You won’t be disappointed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Roasted Date 2/2023 delivery date 10/8/2023
    The coffee was roasted on 2/2023 today date is 10/8/2023 the coffee is 8 month old, Fresh roasted coffee usually is not considered fresh after 3 weeks.. Not long ago sellers would let you know that you were buying outdated foods it seems now that Amazon is a dumping grounds for outdated merchandise. We like the taste of Lavazza Caffe Espresso Italiano Whole Bean over Peets coffee that we been buying since 1973 “personal coffee taste change it might be for the worst but I am ok with it” I would definitely buy Lavazza Caffe Espresso Italiano Whole Bean again but not on Amazon.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good Espresso at Good Price
    Was looking for an alternative to local coffee house coffees and decided to try this brand. On average, I have 2-3 espressos a day and have no complaints with this brand at all. Price (when on sale) is comperable to our local grocery stores and have never had an issue with quality or shipping.

    As for flavor, I only know what brands and flavors I don’t like, so I couldn’t say I’d give this a 9/10 comparison rating. If I had my way, I’d have an endless stream of Blue Mountain or Kona coffee beans, but since I don’t have that kind of money, this is a suitable substitute.

  31. Rivendell (verified owner)

    5.0 out of 5 stars our favorite for our espresso maker
    From time to time we purchase various coffees, but consistently our favorite is the Lavazza whole bean coffee. It’s got a great aroma and taste, and works perfectly for our espresso/cappuchino machine, and delivers a consistent flavor. High quality!

    3.0 out of 5 stars The coffee beans were not cleaned after roasting.
    The media could not be loaded. The coffee beans were not cleaned after they were roasted. We order 2 packs. The 1st bag’s beans were not cleaned either. We did not bother to report and assumed it was a one-of.
    These picrures are from the 2nd bag which we just opened. We felt obligated to report, since we like the coffee – but do not want to spend 1/2 hour per bag to clean. We have another pakage that we will open in 2 weeks.

    5.0 out of 5 stars My absolute favorite for years
    I’ve been drinking Lavazza Caffe Espresso black bag for over a decade now. I prepare it in a moka pot and I’ve started to drink it with high fat Oatly. It’s so divinely delicious. I’ve had many guests comment on how fantastic it is prepared this way, with comments like, “I wanna come over for coffee more often.” The flavor is prominent, yet on the mild to medium scale; very flavorful, yet very smooth with an almost *slightly* nutty flavor to it. It is not hazelnut flavored, nothing like that at all (you know how subjective these flavor profile descriptions are). Sometimes mild to medium flavored beans have almost nothing to them. I end up asking, “where’s the flavor?” Not with this espresso and this preparation method. It’s also fantastic with regular milk as a traditional cappuccino or just straight up with nothing else in it. I’ve never had this Lavazza made in a fancy espresso machine, only in a percolator-style moka pot, so I don’t know how the different preparation method might change the end result as far as flavor. Sometimes I’ll make it in a french press as a coffee (versus a true espresso) and while it’s good this way, it’s nothing special. From my experience, the moka pot is absolutely where it’s at for this espresso. I’ve tried a lot of coffees over the years, and this is the one I keep coming back to.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Best
    We have a full automatic coffee machine and are very particular about what coffee beans we use. We want our coffee to have deep aroma, strong but mellow flavor with low acidity. That is really hard to find in a bean. We have tried lots of different beans and the Lavazza Espresso Italiano Medium Roast has it all for us.

    We set up our coffee machine so that we use this as our regular coffee, then with the touch of a button, can have terrific Espresso as well. One bean for both. This Espresso bean blend is the best we have found and is is the only one we use. It is a great value for the price, and it gets 5 full flavored stars from us.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lavazza Espresso Italiano Bean
    The aroma of freshly ground Lavazza’s Caffe Espresso Italiano Whole Bean awakens my senses each morning, inviting me to craft the perfect homemade cappuccino. Each Rancilio extraction unlocks a symphony of rich notes and velvety texture that dances on my palate. This Italian classic transforms my daily ritual into a cafe-worthy experience, leaving me energized and ready to seize the day.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Robust flavor. Excellent espresso!
    We use this espresso bean daily to make excellent espresso coffee. The flavor is strong and bold, but does not have a burnt or strong after taste like some espresso beans do. Everyone’s flavor profile can be different but give this one a try. It is always consistently the same bean….i.e. no variation in flavor over the years. The double pack is a great value.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Quality issue lately?
    I love Lavazza coffee and it’s usually spot on but I’ve had a few bags of this espresso grade 5/10 torrification that have left me wondering what happened to my fave, babe? A small sample reveals grossly different bean sizes and levels of torrification, and quite a few broken beans now. Also presence and absence of silverskins on same level of torrified beans tells me somewhere along the blend cycle someone is letting poor grade beans through. I expect better quality from grocery store brands but Lavazza is supposed to be specialty grade. Will give them a break if I don’t see improvement soon.

    Not two day Prime delivery, but the service is reliable and is delivered in a few days. I order two bags at a time and when I open my second bag I re-order. Usually the best price and they frequently offer coupons which reduces the cost a little more.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Makes the best Cold Brew
    This is the only coffee I purchase for cold brew. A few years back I found out that my sugar levels were way too high. I needed to cut almost all sugar from my daily diet. I was using way too much sugar in my coffee every morning. I tried to cut the sugar in my hot coffee, but just couldn’t do it. Finally, I switched to year round cold brew and I am able to drink the cold brew with adding extra sugar. It is great!
