パリのカフェで飲んだエスプレッソがおいしかったので自宅でも飲んでいます。スタバのエスプレッソ豆がおいしいのですが、250gが1339円(消費税込み)なので1kgだと5000円以上します。コスパを求めてこちらを購入していました。最近値上がりが激しくて、スタバのフレンチローストを頼んでいます。またお値打ちになれば戻りたいですね。

I have been buying Lavazza Espresso whole bean coffee for years. It’s a great value for this this big 2.2 pound bag of quality coffee beans.
I use this coffee in my espresso machine, drip coffee maker and French press. Be sure to adjust the grind accordingly (fine, medium, course).
I find this coffee to have a good, rich, smooth, flavor. It’s not bitter. Medium strength. Overall a great and affordable every day coffee.

Great quality, aroma, saturation, taste. Grind it according to your needs (espresso, drip, or whatever you like). The bag is large and good value. What’s not to love?

You simply can’t and won’t go wrong with Lavazza 😋😋😋
Kindle Customer –
First of all, my headline is an opinion. I understand that coffee is beloved by most of humanity and that it engenders strong opinions, so don’t be offended if you disagree. Let me state my case and build some background and context:
1. I drink coffee black. If folks are putting cream and sugar into their coffee, or making espresso drinks with milk like lattes or Cappuccinos, I feel as though they don’t have to worry quite as much about things like acidity/bitterness in coffee because milk changes the taste a lot. If you also drink coffee black, this review is perfect for you.
2.. This review is meant for people who intend to brew these coffee beans with a classic Drip Coffee Maker or a French Press. This is because these are the only methods I’ve used to brew the coffee. While these beans from Lavazza are called “Espresso Roast Coffee”, that does not mean they can only be used for Espresso. If a coffee roaster labels something an “Espresso Roast”, it simply means that roaster believes the beans would do well when prepared as an Espresso. That does not mean it can’t also be used via other preparation methods. There is a little picture/symbol on the front of the package that indicates this is also good when prepared as Drip Coffee or via French Press.
2. While this particular “Espresso Roast” is not the only type of coffee beans from Lavazza that can be used for drip coffee, I would recommend sticking to varieties that are labeled “100% arabica.” There are two types of coffee beans: Arabica and Robusta. Like anything else, you could Google this and find 2 full pages of info to read regarding the differences between these two bean types. But the easiest breakdown seems to be that Robusta beans are more intense (or robust, guess it’s in the name) but often more bitter. The bitterness especially becomes present when the coffee is slowly brewed as drip coffee. This is why Lavazza has lots of varieties so you would need to use their website to determine the full list of products they sell that are 100% arabica. You will see that they only have the icon indicating the coffee is good to be prepared as drip coffee for their 100% arabica blends, going along with what I’m saying.
3. Going back to point 2, this is what makes Lavazza Whole Bean Espresso Roast so amazing. There is simply no bitterness regardless of how strong you make it. When you look at Lavazza’s description of tasting notes for this blend, they mention Floral and fruity notes. This is where I always feel dumb as I don’t personally get those notes. For me it’s extremely rich, full bodied, and I get those nice chocolatey, roasty notes. I don’t mean like dark chocolate or deeply roasted notes like I would get from a dark roast, because you can clearly tell it’s a medium roast. More of a milk chocolate type of flavor profile. I definitely don’t get the fruity/floral notes Lavazza mentions, which for me is good as those are not my preferred flavors. I’m not saying that those listed flavor notes are purely just subjective or matter of opinion, but I taste what I taste.
At the end of the day, in my mind what makes the coffee quality is that even when you brew it much stronger than what you might say is average, there’s simply no acidity or bitterness. If you purchase the 2.2 pound bag and drink this coffee for a month straight (or however long the bag lasts) and then go back to major American brands, like ones with initials like SB or DD, the acidity and bitterness will become obvious immediately.
4. Regarding point 3, am I saying there are no American Coffee Brands or American Coffee Roasters that make good coffee that isn’t bitter and acidic? No I’m not. What I’m saying is that those will be boutique coffee roasters or smaller brands that will be much more expensive than this Lavazza Coffee. Are there any big American Coffee Brands that make coffee like Lavazza? I’m saying NO. Flat out, unequivocally, no. Lavazza is a billion dollar Italian brand. I love to support local companies when possible, but they are not going to be price competitive with Lavazza. So as your everyday coffee, if price is important to you like it is to most, then obviously it’s all about finding the best for the cheapest. Queue this coffee.
5. This coffee should run you no more than $18 full price for 2.2 pounds as of December 2024. You may occasionally see it priced higher, this means it’s sold out through Lavazza directly and a third party seller has jacked up the price. I would not purchase the coffee from any other seller than Lavazza so watch out for that. Just as importantly, YOU DO NOT have to pay $18 every time if you watch for sales. There are frequent sales of anywhere from $2-$5. So you can get this for as cheap as $13 which is an absolute steal for 2.2 pounds of this glorious coffee. It’s still a great deal at $18 for the quality, but at $13 or $14 it’s the ultimate no brainer. Maybe order 2 bags when it’s on sale.
6. You don’t get to control how fresh the beans are when you receive them which sucks. But to Lavazza’s credit, they often arrive within 6 weeks of the packaging date. This is also to their credit: They have the date the beans were packaged on the side, not just the expiration date. The key thing to know is that there is indeed a big difference if you are drinking 4-6 week old beans (never got them fresher than that) vs 3 or 4 month old beans. The difference in freshness is pronounced both in the taste and even more so the smell. This is just the reality of ordering this coffee at this amazing price, have to trust you will get it relatively fresh. For my experience, I have for the most part.
Bottom Line: If you are an American like me mostly making and drinking drip coffee, and maybe not as sophisticated as an Espresso drinker, drinking this Lavazza coffee will make you realize that other brands you have been consuming are acidic and bitter when brewed as drip coffee. You will probably either place this on Autoship if that’s your kind of thing, or at the very least you will order it again. But I guess you will have to take the chance on it to find out. I don’t think $18 (at most) is that big a risk.

We’ve been using these beans in our Jura for years now and always come back to them. They make a great cup—smooth, not bitter, and just the right strength for our taste. They work perfectly with our machine and give us a good crema every time. Simple, consistent, and just really good coffee.
Nate Shackelford –
I’ve been using Lavazza Espresso Whole Bean Coffee (Medium Roast) for years, and buying the 6-pack of 2.2 lb bags is the best value if you’re a serious coffee drinker or run through beans quickly. It’s the perfect combination of quality, flavor, and consistency.
This blend delivers a smooth, rich espresso with a balanced body and low acidity. The 100% Arabica beans produce a velvety crema, and the flavor has notes of chocolate, nuts, and a hint of fruitiness—not overpowering, just well-rounded and refined. It’s incredibly versatile: great for espresso machines, but also excellent in a moka pot, French press, or even drip if you like a bolder cup.

Let me start out by saying I am a coffee fiend. I drink it all hours of the night and day and I’ve tried just about every brand you can think of. I took a chance ordering this and I’m so glad I did! Reading the other reviews helped me so I hope this helps someone else, too.
No one is paying me for my opinion, I’m not getting a single thing for writing this except the satisfaction of reporting on a quality product.
Not only is it a good price for how much you get, (09/25- $22 for 35.2 oz) but this is some of the smoothest coffee I’ve ever tasted. The beans are so shiny and just pretty. They’re not all dried out and dull and dessicated looking like some coffees… The beans smell so good in the bag and even better once I’ve ground them. They grind up very quickly and easily too. There’s no bitter aftertaste. Just pure, delightful, delicious coffee.
I got the 5/10 espresso, and it’s perfect for me. it’s just strong enough. I like medium-strong roasts, so if you prefer darker or lighter roasts they have plenty of other options.
I use both a drip coffee pot and a French press and this works beautifully in both. The crema in the French press is gorgeous.
It’s so far above other brands- even Seattle’s best and eight o clock and Cameron’s, which I thought I really liked… They don’t hold a candle to this.
I can’t wait to try the other flavors.

I love espresso but I use these yummy beans in my Braun drip machine as black coffee. My regular black coffee, that I love so much for the last 100 years or so, is Maxwell House French Roast. They are both arabica beans. They both have the smooth mellow non acidic profile. To me the Lavazza beans are a step up in quality. Its like a delicious desert coffee treat especially when on sale. I don’t own a fancy grinder. I grind mine in my Ninja single smoothie glasses and I get a very good fine grind. The rest of the beans I keep frozen. The difference between grinds is that the Lavazza beans carry more moisture than my ground MH French Roast which causes the Lavazza to clump a little so you need to level off your scoop for consistency. I use 2 scoops for either. Enjoy!
Mizzali –
I love this coffee. I like the fact that it comes as whole beans because grinding it fresh right before brewing brings out amazing flavor. The taste is rich, smooth, and honestly just as good as what I’d get from a coffee shop. I make mine with a moka pot, and it always turns out really good. It also gives me the energy boost I need

Very good coffee! Used to be a lot cheaper but still one of the cheaper ones on here. Out of the cheaper ones I’ve tried it’s one of the best.
I use about two 1/4 cup scoops of beans (rounded) to the grinder for a full pot of coffee (12 cups) and it’s pretty strong but not bitter which is how I like it. Have bought quite a few bags of this.

I have struggled to find a good taste and tried many known brand coffee beans. This one is perfect for those looking for a fine coffee!! Amazing aroma, taste, and foam from a two espresso shots!! If you are a coffee lover, this one is for you! Especially if you make espresso regularly

I’ve bought this coffee more than once. The roast is moderate, with a pleasant aroma and a smooth taste. The strength is just right — flavorful but not too strong or bitter.
It works well for both Americano and cappuccino and still tastes good with milk. For the price, the quality is very reasonable.
The only small downside is that the bag doesn’t have a zip-lock closure, but that’s not a big issue
Joey –
I’ve tried a lot of coffees over the years. I used to switch it up about every three months, always looking for something better. Then I found Lavazza Super Crema and I stopped searching.
I knew almost immediately this one was different. And now, I’ve been using it consistently for over a year. That alone says everything.
This is the only coffee I drink. Every day, without exception, I make at least one espresso and turn it into my Cuban coffee. It’s part of my morning rhythm.
Out of all the coffees I’ve tried, this is still the best I’ve had to date. What stands out most is how creamy and smooth it is. It pulls a thick, beautiful crema and makes an espresso that’s rich and balanced and its not bitter, not harsh, just clean and satisfying.
It also works extremely well with the Breville Barista Pro, which is the machine I own. The grind and extraction are consistent, and the results are reliable every single morning.
When something becomes part of your daily ritual, it has to earn that place. This one did.
If you drink espresso daily, love Cuban-style coffee, or want a dependable whole bean that performs on a home espresso machine, Lavazza Super Crema is absolutely worth it.
Over a year later, it’s still my standard.

Lavazza Espresso Whole Bean Coffee, Medium Roast delivers rich, well‑rounded flavor with a lovely balance of sweetness and subtle acidity. The beans grind beautifully and produce a smooth, aromatic shot whether you’re pulling espresso or brewing a strong drip. The medium roast highlights nuanced notes without any bitterness, making it enjoyable black or with milk. Great choice for everyday coffee lovers who want quality and consistency in every cup!

The Lavazza Espresso whole bean coffee is very good quality. The medium roast is smooth, balanced, and works well for espresso, lattes, and cappuccinos. Beans grind evenly and produce a nice crema.
My only issue is the price instability. Sometimes it’s around $17, which is an excellent value, but other times it jumps to $26, which feels high for the same product. Because of this, it’s best to watch the price and buy when it drops.
Overall, great coffee with consistent flavor — just keep an eye on pricing before purchasing.

I really enjoyed this coffee. I used to buy Lavazza espresso with a darker roast (7/10), but this one is a medium roast (5/10), and for me it tastes noticeably better. The flavor is smoother, more balanced, and less bitter, while still working perfectly for espresso. It has a pleasant richness without being too heavy or harsh. Highly recommended if you prefer a slightly lighter, more refined espresso profile.

This is my go-to coffee and one I drink every single morning. It brews with a smooth flavor and a naturally creamy top that isn’t too bold or bitter — perfect for busy mornings when I want a reliable pick-me-up without anything overpowering.
I use it in both my espresso machine and my regular coffee maker, and it performs well in both. The medium roast is well balanced, easy to drink, and consistent from bag to bag.
If you prefer very dark or smoky espresso, this may be too mild — but for everyday use, it’s a great option.
Bottom line: A dependable, smooth espresso coffee that’s easy to enjoy daily.

If you own a bean-to-cup machine (like a Breville, De’Longhi, or Jura) and are struggling to find beans that give you that coffee-shop look without clogging your grinder, Lavazza Super Crema (2.2 lb Bag) is widely considered the gold standard for good reason.
The Good:
Grinder Friendly (Non-Oily): This is the biggest selling point. Many espresso roasts are incredibly oily, which spells disaster for the built-in grinders of superautomatic machines. These beans are a medium roast and dry to the touch, meaning they feed smoothly and won’t gunk up your expensive equipment.
Living Up to the Name: It really does produce a “Super Crema.” Thanks to the blend of Arabica (for flavor) and washed Robusta (for body), the shot pulls with a thick, velvety layer of golden foam that lasts. It looks professional in the cup.
Crowd-Pleasing Flavor: It has a very distinct profile of honey, dried fruit, and almonds. It lacks the harsh bitterness of a dark roast and the sharp acidity of a light roast, making it a perfect middle ground for lattes and cappuccinos.
The “Need to Know”:
It’s Not a “Dark” Roast: If you are looking for that charred, smoky, southern Italian kick (like a French Roast style), this might feel too mild for you. It’s smooth and creamy, not intense and bitey.
Check the Date: Since this is a bulk 2.2 lb import bag, you aren’t getting beans roasted yesterday. While the nitrogen-flushed bag keeps them surprisingly fresh, you are trading “local roaster freshness” for convenience and price consistency.
Verdict: For the price per pound, it is hard to beat this as an everyday espresso bean. It is forgiving to brew, easy on your grinder, and tastes delicious in milk-based drinks. It is a pantry staple for a reason.

Packaging poco curato e appartenendo ad una spedizione multipla, praticamente era priva qualsiasi protezione.
Il prodotto in se, credo sia una dei migliori caffè mai assaggiati, essendo un consumatore che predilige la cremosità, l’intensità, persistenza e corpo, posso dire che questo caffè rappresenta quel che a mio parere è il perfetto bilanciamento tra le varie caratteristiche.
Anzitutto è di una cremosità a dir poco sorprendente ma soprattutto persistente, non è il classico caffè che lasciato per un 1 minuto perde completamente la crema.
Il corpo è ben deciso presentando diverse sfumature tra le note di testa, di corpo e di fondo, persistenza ottima lascia quell’ottimo gusto di caffè in bocca anche per 1/2 ora, poco acido quindi per alcuni potrà risultare “poco forte” ma lo stomaco risulta ringrazia ed inoltre decisamente il consumatore che riscontrerà tale mancanza risulterà poco coerente con la scelta in sè in quanto è precisamente scritto “con note di nocciola e zucchero di canna”. Insomma non è il prodotto giusto per chi è in cerca di acidità.
A fronte del prezzo richiesto 17€/kg e della qualità offerta è sicuramente un BEST BUY!
Super consigliato!

I picked up this big 2.2 lb bag of Lavazza Super Crema because I wanted a reliable everyday coffee that could do double duty in my espresso machine and drip brewer. Right out of the bag, the beans have a nice medium roast aroma—not too strong, not too mild. The blend of Arabica and Robusta gives it a classic Italian espresso vibe with a little bit of body and sweetness, without getting too bitter or intense.
Brewing it as an espresso, I got a smooth shot with a decent crema that holds up well under milk drinks like lattes or cappuccinos. And when I switched to a pour-over or drip setup, it still tasted pleasant—balanced and easy to drink with subtle notes (a hint of chocolate/nuts if you pay attention). Some folks say medium roasts like this don’t wow specialty coffee fans, but for the price and bag size, this one’s been really good everyday coffee for home use.
✨ Highlights:
Big, budget-friendly bag — great if you drink coffee daily.
Medium roast that’s versatile for espresso or regular brew.
Smooth and balanced—easy to drink black or with milk.
👍 Good for: Daily use, espresso lovers who don’t want something too bold, households that go through beans fast.
☕ Personal takeaway: It’s not the most complex coffee ever, but it gets the job done with a pleasant flavor and rich aroma. A solid pick if you want dependable, Italian-style espresso beans without breaking the bank

I’ve bought this coffee more than once. The roast is moderate, with a pleasant aroma and a smooth taste. The strength is just right — flavorful but not too strong or bitter.
It works well for both Americano and cappuccino and still tastes good with milk. For the price, the quality is very reasonable.
The only small downside is that the bag doesn’t have a zip-lock closure, but that’s not a big issue

Packaging poco curato e appartenendo ad una spedizione multipla, praticamente era priva qualsiasi protezione.
Il prodotto in se, credo sia una dei migliori caffè mai assaggiati, essendo un consumatore che predilige la cremosità, l’intensità, persistenza e corpo, posso dire che questo caffè rappresenta quel che a mio parere è il perfetto bilanciamento tra le varie caratteristiche.
Anzitutto è di una cremosità a dir poco sorprendente ma soprattutto persistente, non è il classico caffè che lasciato per un 1 minuto perde completamente la crema.
Il corpo è ben deciso presentando diverse sfumature tra le note di testa, di corpo e di fondo, persistenza ottima lascia quell’ottimo gusto di caffè in bocca anche per 1/2 ora, poco acido quindi per alcuni potrà risultare “poco forte” ma lo stomaco risulta ringrazia ed inoltre decisamente il consumatore che riscontrerà tale mancanza risulterà poco coerente con la scelta in sè in quanto è precisamente scritto “con note di nocciola e zucchero di canna”. Insomma non è il prodotto giusto per chi è in cerca di acidità.
A fronte del prezzo richiesto 17€/kg e della qualità offerta è sicuramente un BEST BUY!
Super consigliato!

Ummmmm I’ve been using the WRONG brand espresso bean my entire natural born life. This Italian roast is so robust with a full body flavor profile, it’s worth the investment to go with this brand. I can gather caramel notes with some hints of almond (but maybe that’s just my own tastebuds). And with setting your machine on an incredibly fine grind, these beans are so much less oily than other national leading brands, that they’ll leave the most beautiful crema. I’ve achieved at least .5 inch crema on top for some of the shots I’ve pulled since using this well over two weeks now. The value of this size bag is ample for the amazing quality. I also take into consideration that these beans were sealed properly. Amazing blend all the way around. Smooth and tasty! You all will love Lavazza and wonder why you haven’t been drinking it all along like I am.

This Lavazza Super Crema coffee arrives fresh and maintains excellent flavor. The medium espresso roast provides a smooth, rich blend of Arabica and Robusta beans that produces a perfect cup every time. The beans are never expired on arrival, which is a significant plus for a subscription product. At this price point, it offers exceptional quality and consistency that I can rely on month after month.

I tend to buy local and fresh and local but thought i’d give this a try as it is well known for a quality espresso shot. I was not disappointed, it lives up to it’s name and produces a nice head of crema and it produces excellent espresso, bold but not oily which is perfect for semi-automatic machines. My Rancillio Silvia is manual but I don’t plug my Ranciallio Rocky grinder by sticking with beans compatible with semi-automatic. When I come across others that appear to oily, I run them through my burr coffee grinder instead and make drip coffee instead. I normally opt for local coffee shop beans but they have been out recently of the origins I prefer so thought i’d try something different. I wasn’t disappointed after a month of espresso pulls so would recommend this product and the price is right.

パリのカフェで飲んだエスプレッソがおいしかったので自宅でも飲んでいます。スタバのエスプレッソ豆がおいしいのですが、250gが1339円(消費税込み)なので1kgだと5000円以上します。コスパを求めてこちらを購入していました。最近値上がりが激しくて、スタバのフレンチローストを頼んでいます。またお値打ちになれば戻りたいですね。

We really enjoy this coffee brand, and this whole bean option did not disappoint. The flavor is smooth and well balanced, rich and full-bodied without being overly bitter. The aroma is pleasant and inviting, especially when freshly ground.
The beans look evenly roasted and work well in our coffee machine. The taste is consistent from cup to cup, whether used for espresso or regular brewed coffee.
Considering the brand and quality, the price is very good. Overall, a flavorful and reliable whole bean coffee that I would gladly recommend
