I was a little uncertain about buying this coffee after reading some of the reviews but I'm glad I did. Admittedly I don't like really strong coffee anyway but I certainly haven't found this watery nor is it bitter. In fact I think it tastes better than what I was using before. I have a bean to cup machine and it works perfectly on the settings I was already using. It doesn't produce the thickest crema I've seen but it does produce one. If you like your coffee quite mild but flavourful, and if you're buying a strength 3 I'm presuming you do, then this is definitely worth considering. And it is excellent value for money too.

I love my coffee and i'll always grind fresh at most doing a batch to last a day or so amd keeping it sealed. It's not cheap buying coffee beans soni decided to give these a try as the price was so tempting. This is a 1kg bag of 100% Arabica beans. The bag is foil lined with the usual pressure valve at the top to avoid the bag popping. The beans are rainforrest alliance certified so both peoples rights and the forrest are treated with respect. They do also state on the bag that the beans are sourced from several countries, but are roasted and packed in Belgium. If they are good quality beans you will smell the coffee in the bag before opening, not so in this case. The beans are sourced from multiple countries rather than single source which is a bit disapointing. Single source beans always have a better flavour profile and also give a reliable expectation. E.g. South america will be rich and fruity, asia and africa more acidic. These make a very acidic brew soni would presume the latter. I like to brew an espresso for new beans to get a full impression of the flavour and oil content. This gives a very thin almost no creme layer, so not much oil to the beans (milder, drier flavour), it brews a black rather than brown (medium to dark roasted beans). Taste wise this is very acidic. Piping hot the flavour is quite neutral and not really much of anything, let it cool a bit and it's smooth, very smooth, but also the high acidity comes through. There's not really any dominant flavour notes or aromas that i pick up, maybe a very mild chocolate or nut. Unfortunately the acidity overwhelms the palette thr cooler it gets. This has been roasted to a pleasant level (3/5), there's no taste of burnt coffee, but i think a heavier roasting would help reduce the acid and bring out more of the flavour. Because this is much more acidic than i would normally drink i think i'll have this as a morning coffee (to help get things moving). I'd also recommend brewing in a cafetiere rather than espresso. The ussual 1 tablespoon + 1 spoon per cup. Overall a bargain option for coffee beans and will definitely wake you up. But if you don't like acidic coffee and prefer a rich flavour profile steer clear. Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it useful

Being relatively new to the coffee bean minefield these have surpassed all expectations, beautiful flavour and a decent strength. Will definitely be ordering more

This is not high quality coffee. That said, anyone expecting high quality at this price point is delusional. But having given it a go I’ve been pleasantly surprised. The coffee keeps and grinds well, even for espresso. The beans give a good crema consistently. The flavour is a little dull and earthy and doesn’t have any real character other than murky but it’s fine for everyday drinking. Missing some of the finer characteristics you might get from say Costa or Illy, this coffee is still a good few notches above the likes of percol or Lyons that you can now pick up in bargain stores. It’s worth considering that this is likely to be the polar opposite of fair trade coffee so if ethics come into your consideration when buying coffee, probably best to steer clear of this. I can’t even find a country of origin listed so it’s likely a blend of all things unworthy of a brand label. That said, if you eat fast food, you can’t pull the ethics card out on your coffee habits. In terms of value, this is its USP. As you can see in the pics, I’m about a third of the way through the 2kg, grinding in small batches to feed a four to six double-shots a day habit. I’m delighted to have fresh ground coffee on hand without the concern of running out within the week. Planning to supplement with the occasional tin of Illy but while that’s usually close to £5 for 250g there’s no contest in my mind and I can’t claim to have taste buds so sophisticated that they won’t drink this. Bottom line, give it a go and if you don’t mind a ‘standard’ fresh ground coffee, you’ve found a winner! Hey, it beats instant!

il caffe amazon ha un ottimo qp pagato 6 EURO AL KG corpo medio aromaticita ottima prezzo super che dire tostatura media come nei paesi nordici e non carbonioso come in italia e in francia questo significa anche che ha parita di quantita in tazza bisognera usare meno zucchero questo perche l astringenza della torrefazione media ha nella sua qualità l equilibrio quindi si possono fare piu break durante la giornata in quanto essendo arabica ha minor quantita di caffeina. la persistenza al palato e minore. ma piu favorevole nel gusto e una minor quantita di acrilamide il che ne guadagnera cosa importante, la salute. in fine che dire ottimo prodotto che ho inserito nelle consegne programmate di amazon nel mio paniere Nb nel macinarlo non preparatelo subito ma lasciatelo respirare e raffreddare dallo stress della molitura un po di ore il gusto con l ossidazione ottenuta migliorera la qualità del caffe e il piacere sensoriale Aggiornamento per la macinazione uso ora un grinder zubita uguale a quello illy ma costa la metà e manuale con macine in ceramica e la crema e il gusto e migliorano in quanto e diciamo fresco e non stressato da aggeggi elettrici

Nous utilisons ce café en grain avec notre machine Delonghi, et le résultat est vraiment excellent. Dès l'ouverture du paquet, l’odeur est très agréable, et une fois moulu, le café offre une belle crème et un goût équilibré, sans amertume. Il convient aussi bien pour les espressos que les cafés allongés. Le rapport qualité-prix est imbattable, surtout comparé à d'autres marques beaucoup plus chères pour un résultat parfois moins bon. C’est devenu notre café du quotidien ! :D

Este cafe esta muy bien, no es cafe de especialidad pero es cafe natural, nada de torrefacto, por el precio que tiene no se puede pedir mas, mucho mejor que la mayoria de cafes que venden en los supermercados que muchas veces te lo venden como tueste natural y resulta ser torrefacto. Para cafe de diario lo recomiendo

Ho provato l’Amazon House Blend quasi per curiosità, e ora è diventato il mio caffè di tutti i giorni! La tostatura media è un punto di forza: non troppo intensa da coprire gli aromi, né troppo chiara da risultare acida. Si trova quel giusto equilibrio tra dolcezza e corpo, con note di cioccolato fondente e una punta di nocciola che lo rendono piacevolissimo al palato. Perché lo adoro: Aroma avvolgente: Appena aperta la confezione da 1kg, si sente un profumo fresco e invitante. In tazza, mantiene una complessità che ricorda i caffè di alta gamma, con un retrogusto morbido e persistente. Versatilità assoluta: Lo uso con la moka, la macchina espresso e anche per il caffè filtro. Con l’espresso ottengo una crema setosa (meno corposa di un dark roast, ma elegante), mentre con la moka esalta note più fruttate. Eticità senza compromessi: Il certificato Rainforest Alliance è un valore aggiunto: sapere che si supportano pratiche sostenibili mi fa scegliere questo prodotto a cuore leggero. Convenienza: La confezione da 1kg è ideale per chi, come me, consuma tanto caffè. Il prezzo è ottimo per la qualità offerta, soprattutto rispetto a marche "premium" che costano il doppio! Ideale per: Chi cerca un caffè quotidiano bilanciato, senza estremismi. Chi apprezza la versatilità: perfetto per espresso, cappuccino o metodi alternativi (Chemex, French Press). Chi vuole un acquisto consapevole, senza rinunciare al gusto. Attenzione: Se amate i caffè super tostati dal sapore affumicato o quelli chiari con acidità pronunciata, questa miscela potrebbe non soddisfarvi. Ma per tutti gli altri… è una scoperta! Voto: 5 stelle – Un caffè che unisce carattere, etica e praticità. Lo consiglio a chiunque voglia iniziare la giornata con un sorriso e una tazza di qualità. Ormai non posso più farne a meno! ☕🌱

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo ma non un caffè paragonabile a Corsini o Pellini
