Review: Rich, Smooth, and Consistently Excellent - Lavazza coffee never disappoints. It has a rich aroma, smooth taste, and a perfect balance without being too bitter or acidic. Whether as an espresso or a longer coffee, it delivers a premium feel every time. Great quality at a fair price — definitely a staple in my kitchen.
Review: Amazing coffee, just wish it was cheaper - This is one of the best coffees I’ve tried and definitely my favourite in terms of flavour. It’s rich, smooth, and makes a great espresso every time. The only downside is the price — it’s gone up recently, so I usually end up ordering cheaper beans instead. But whenever I treat myself to this one, I’m reminded why I like it so much. If you can get it at a good price, it’s absolutely worth it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this for Expresso coffee**
A: Yes, absolutely. However, you need a coffee machine with a good coffee grinder, as this bag comes only in beans.

**Q: Which lavazza is dark roast, this comes up in my search but the description says medium roast?!**
A: I bought Lavazza gusto which is dark roast 10/10
I like it but obviously personal taste

**Q: How does this one compare to espresso cremoso or maestro, please?**
A: I prefer the “Lavazza Barista Gran Crema, Arabica and Robusta Drum Roast Coffee Beans” - smoother

**Q: The Lavazza website says that this coffee is 100% Arabica, but here the description says that it's actually a blend. Which one is correct?**
A: I believe it is a mix of Arabica and Robusta beans. 
Whatever; it is my preferred coffee. I try others regularly but always come back to these. 
Good flavour but not bitter.
