Taste:goodQuality:goodSuitability:suits my tasteHaving to switch from speciality coffee to regular commercial coffee I would say the quality is good even though the notes are not as prominent as the speciality coffee in comparison to freshly roast Brazil santos beans. However, for this who preferred coffee with low acidity and, medium roast intensity, this coffee is pretty good for day to day coffee. Note wise, it quite similar to the Brazil santos beans except it’s toned down version. For its price to quality ratio I would say it’s a worth buy, my parents love the taste of it as well. Have used it for pour over but not expresso. Delivery is extremely fast I am quite surprised, the coffee was delivered the next day.

Qualità Oro is in between the two others in terms of roast degree. It’s a bit darker than the Espresso blend but still lighter than Rossa.On the cupping table, it stands out for its more vibrant, fruity fragrance. It’s 100% arabica, and it also tastes that way.On the tongue, it has a more bitter dark chocolate note coming from the roast degree. This is combined with a fruity/berry note. It’s hard to pick a specific fruit, but some hints of citric fruits and red berries are present.

This coffee is certainly not for everyone. It is a strong, dark roast coffee made up with a mixture of both arabica and robusta beans. Arabica beans tend to have a sweeter, softer taste, with tones of sugar, fruit, and berries. Their acidity is higher, with that winey taste that characterises coffee with excellent acidity. Robusta, however, has a stronger, harsher taste, with a grain-like overtone and peanuty aftertaste. Good-quality robusta beans are used in traditional Italian espresso blends, at about 10-15%, to provide a full-bodied taste and a better foam head, often known as the crema.In this regard especially, this blend of beans provides an excellent crema. But as hinted at earlier in my review, many might find this coffee too strong and perhaps on the ... MoreThis coffee is certainly not for everyone.

But as hinted at earlier in my review, many might find this coffee too strong and perhaps on the bitter side.Indeed rather like a Portugeuse espresso, known as a "bica", even coffee aficionados may still reach for the sugar. In fact it is often said that many Lisbon locals claim that "Bica" is an acronym for "Beba isso com açúcar", literally meaning "Drink this with sugar".Having becoming accustomed with the rich espressos in Portugal, this blend by Lavazza certainly replicates this experience.The only drawback is the price which, at around £13+ a kilo, is a little expensive.Read less

Firstly i should say i use a frencg press mostly and so my opinions below are based purely on preparing the coffee this way. I go off-piste occasionally and try other blends but always seem to go back to Lavazza Qualita Oro. The Qualita Oro is a solid well balanced blended Italian roast - i personally get some nutty, earthy, berry like sweetness with both the smell and the taste. The aftertaste is very smooth which i really like and i would describe it as a light bodied coffee compared to other Lavazza blends i have tried. I have tried amd would not recommend it for espresso lovers, it is not a punchy coffee in my opinion and is better suited to french press filtered applications where the smoothness can excel. A real quality coffee in my opinion for day to day use ... MoreFirstly i should say i use a frencg press mostly and so my opinions below are based purely on preparing the coffee this way.

Simply put it yes…! This is the gold standard for great coffee. Personally I use both a artisan flavoured coffee and Lavaazza Oro. Why?! The Oro is the best, personally, it’s a great staple coffee well rounded, great punch, fruity and floral, with BIG coffee kick! It produces a great créma and delivers perfectly every time. I have tried a range of other brands and others within the Lavazza range and it’s really difficult to say otherwise. Artisan and washed coffees are great and with out a gold standard coffee along side them (in rotation) to disrupt the flavours, you might struggle to taste the difference. Oro is great!! And a daily staple

Coffee is one of the things in life I don't mind splurging on. Lavazza feels like a splurge even though it's pretty fairly priced especially if you catch a sale. It's indulgently rich and smooth. I love the chocolate notes. It has paired well with every flavored creamer or extract I have used. It's a great coffee for every day that is great by itself but also makes a good cup of coffee enhanced by flavors and creams. It's versatile and I love it.

Amazing flavour in a large bag AND goes on sale often

If you have a grinder, i highly recommend these beans. I have been exclusively using these beans for the last year and a half and i wouldn’t switch to anything else. Ive even started making coffee at home and bringing it to work instead of making a coffee stop on the way.Having made multiple coffees for colleagues, everyone is under the same consensus that this is just GREAT tasting coffee. Beans are not too too oily, great smell and flavour .

An excellent coffee

I have a difficult time finding good coffee. I find so many have bitterness (deal-breaker), or excessive acidity. For me, this coffee is perfect. No bitterness, with mild acidity (so the coffee doesn't taste dull). The roast level is also perfect - not so mild that it's flavorless or boring, but not so excessive that it tastes burnt or like charcoal; it's a solid medium roast coffee and my daily drinker.

Can't get a good espresso out of it

I really like this coffee for french press, but I am having nothing but issues with it for espresso. No crema, prone to channeling. Runs either too slow or too fast most of the time. Every espresso that I tried tasted terrible. Strangely, it works better for cappuccino. But even there the failure rate is high. I am not having this issue with let's say Lavazza Gran Riserva or any of the Maromas.
