Lavazza Super Crema Espresso Whole Bean Coffee, 2.2-Pound Bag Review.
"Great for Cap" 2009-11-12
By Scott (Apex, NC)
I have recently tried "Lavazza Tierra! Espresso 100% Arabica " which is great but a little too mild for me. I make cappuccino, not espresso, and the SuperCrema is better for this. It does have more caffeine then the pure Arabica Tierra and is more robust, more body and much more crema. Actually, on the few occasions that I do have espresso I would lean to the Tierra as it is lighter. I use a Pasquini Livia Auto. My vote is SuperCrema for Cap and Tierra for espresso (Tierra if you just want less caffine and a lighter full flavor). So, get both. Here at Amazon the price is great.
"Whole Bean, 2.2 Pound" 2009-08-18

I used it to make French press coffee. I rate it as excellent and better than the more expensive %100 kona coffee beans. The French press tastes exactly like the coffee served in European airports as they use the same beans. It is a matter of your palate. My son prefers the Kona beans. I am lucky in a way to like the lavazza more. Compare $19.09 for 2.2 pounds of lavazza for $29 for one pound of Kona.

This is a great bean for a semi-automatic machine. We have a Jura-Capresso and adjust it to a fine grind with this bean. The beans produce an espresso with a thick crema and a smooth, almost chocolaty ending. This brand can be found at coffee shops all over Italy and Europe in general.
"Supercrema Good!" 2009-08-04

I always come back to this blend. Although it is great to try all the designer espresso blends I just keep coming back to Lavazza Supercrema, it just makes a consistently good cup of coffee. I generally do 3 or so cap's a day and maybe a straight shot of espresso after dinner and either way it just tastes good all the time. Not to strong, smooth flavor. In my book it ranks up there with the best. I run it through the Mazzer and Rancilio Ms. Sylvia for a great cappuccino. Enjoy.
"The best! Ruined me for other coffees." 2009-09-28

Great smooth flavor, terriffic crema. The best, and the price at Amazon was slightly lower than what I had been paying at an online coffee site.
