Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I have already used this Lavazza beans but the first time it was not 100% perfect while the last time it was and I was able, drinking my espresso made with a Jura machine, to feel to be back in a bar in Milano !!! molto buono !!

Lavazza Crema e Aroma Coffee
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I really enjoy this expresso coffee, it is always smooth, never bitter

or over roasted to taste burned. It makes a wonderful cappucino, with

a frothy head, it has a nice frothy head in just a plain cup of espresso.

I highly recommend it and have ordered it a few times. It is also a great

price.

great value

I tried Crema e Aroma and compared it with the more expensive Lavazza Super Crema. I liked the Crema e Aroma better, because of its more pronounced and pleasant flavor. The Super Crema tasted generic to me. In addition to one’s own subjective taste preferences, the final outcome depends on one’s espresso machine, grinder, and coffee amount per shot. My machine is a DeLonghi Magnifica with a built-in grinder, set to max. coffee and almost minimum water per shot. I am sure that there a better coffees out there but Crema e Aroma is a compelling value.

Ok For Price – Not Very Strong

I purchased thhis on the Gold Box Deal for only $7.50 so it was a great price. I was a little disappointed with the streanth. I like strong dark coffee and this was not. But it was good.

Best combined with a darker bean for espresso drinks…

My opinion people…

As someone who has tried many, many coffees trying to get the perfect blend, I have found that the Lavazza Crema e Aroma is the best base from which to start on a custom blend. It is a delicious straight espresso, but I feel it is a little raw, thin, and light for espresso based drinks like lattes and cappucinos. For that, the best combo is two parts Crema e Aroma and one part Java Joe’s Espresso Adoration. For the most delicious tase and best crema, this is the route to go. If you like a more heavy, almost chocolatey flavor, try it 50/50. For those wanting to cut back on the caffiene, try the Crema a Aroma mixed 2 to 1 with the Starbucks decaf espresso roast. It adds just the right touch of over-roasted bean to give more depth to your espresso-based drinks. For my ultimate mix, I actually combine the Crema e Aroma, Java Joe’s, and two other coffees. No, I cant tell you all the secrets, my friends may read this! You’ll just have to come by for a cup.

This Was OK

But maybe a little disappointing. Frankly I got better crema and aroma from “Super Crema” and “Pienaroma” beans, to which I’ll probably go back. The flavor is pretty mild.

I’m using the beans in a Rancilio Rocky grinder and Silvia espresso machine.

Our Daily Grind
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
My family thrives on its Lavazza intake. The Crema e Aroma beans are prepared in our Jura-Capresso S-9, which stays on most of the day. The flavor is smoother and more full than Illy, which we used before discovering these beans as a result of an Amazon review. The crema is thick, rich and holds up well to the high pressure of the Capresso. While some reviews prefer to use another Lavazza for latte or other milk based drinks, we find that a fine grind and the strong setting on the Capresso result in delicious lattes.

We now take advantage of the subscription shipping to insure we never run out. If we get a little ahead in our supply, our daughter is thrilled to take an extra bag off our hands.

I would give this product an unqualified 5-star rating except for one flaw we have only noticed recently. In each bag there appears to be up to a half a dozen green coffee beans. When accidentally ground with the beans even one of these contaminating little nasty things will ruin an entire pot of coffee or destroy a cup of cappuccino with their awful taste. As a result, I now sort through the beans before putting them in airtight storage for daily use.

Aside from that one flaw, this is a fantastic product at a reasonable price, especially if you take the discounted subscription shipping.

Ick. Just ick.

I have been consistently disappointed in the various Lavazza blends that I have tried. My last hotel/travel interface with poor quality ground Lavazza pods has resulted in a new addition to my cosmetic bag– a little Ziplock full of Senseo brand pods, which are decent if not superlative, fairly common in stores, and will accomodate many coffee coffee makers. I thought the last Lavazza incident was just a bad batch, but it’s statistically unlikely that it should keep happening every time. If you have had better luck with specific blends, bless you, but I think it’s not my crappy Karma, but their crummy coffee. Just my two cents; your mileage may vary. I use coffee to pry open the eyelids and I need to hit the ground running, so the first cup has to be acceptable. Life is to short to drink dishwatery coffee.Senseo Douwe Egberts Coffee Pods, Variety Pack, 16-Count Packages (Pack of 4)

Wow. I truly didn’t expect this, it’s great!

My experiences had been drip coffee – a lot of it, over the years. I recently bought an espresso machine, and started experimenting with different coffees.

Some stuff I didn’t like all that much – Illy dark and medium roast was kind of flat for me, sort of bland. Peet’s Italian stuff was chocolately, but muddy/muddled in flavors.

This, though, Crema e Aroma, absolutely lives up to it’s name. Lots of flavor starting with the aroma when you open the bag and grind: mouth-filling, round, with that coffee taste I adore. It’s got a fair amount of persistence, that taste, which may not be great for some folks, but I really like it.

I get nice crema from this, pressure PF or plain PF (it’s a small retail DeLonghi BAR-32, but I have a non-pressure filter for it). The shot starts dark, blonding only a little, and the crema is a beautiful camel tan/brown that fills the room with the smell of great coffee.

It’s got some caffeine, for sure, I get a pretty strong buzz after a double.

I love this coffee!

Versatile bean!

Lavazza roasts won’t disappoint. This bean is very flavorful and brews well coarsely-ground for a French press, medium-ground for a drip and finely-ground for espresso. It just works everywhere… very smooth.

Pretty Good Cuppa Joe

These are good – but not great – coffee beans. I like a bit of a “bite” from my coffee, and prefer a really good French Roast – of which many are not “really good.” Starbucks French Roast is one of the most consistent, but even their outrageously high-priced blend has disappointed me of late. The Lavazza is a more mellow blend, which I find drinkable but without that morning “slap in the face” you get from a heartier roast. Does that make sense?

Inexpensive For A Reason

Nasty robusta beans make for a sour cup. I bought this on deep discount for my emergency pantry, but I think I’d sooner give up coffee altogether.
