Cafe La Llave Dark Roast Espresso Ground Cuban Coffee, 8.8 oz (Pack of 12) - Rich and Bold - Premium Arabica Beans

I use this in my home espresso machine to make a latte every morning. It does a great job of it. Perfectly ground. Vacuum sealed package stays fresh. Tastes great!I used to run a coffee shop and I know a fair bit about coffee… and, honestly, I think if I had a multi-thousand dollar professional machine, I might want a different kind of ground coffee bean, but I think that this ground coffee does a really great job in my home machine!When I have friends who come over to my house, they are always happy with their espresso drink!If you just have a home machine, in the $200 or so range, this is a great espresso for you — and it’s a great value.We decant the vacuum sealed bag into a reusable tin and just buy a new tin (full of coffee grounds!) when our lid starts to age out of regular use.

Just teasing, but the coffee is really good. It has the strong coffee/nutty flavor that I love in a good coffee. We have a stainless steel, plug in, percolator, and I put half a basket full of this coffee and fill the rest of the basket with our normal coffee, and it's wonderful! Don't even want to go to drive through for coffee anymore now that we keep this on tap and home.

I’ve been buying this coffee for about a year now, sometimes taking a break to try something else but I always end up coming back. I buy 4 lbs. at a time every two months on Subscribe & Save, and the quality has been consistently good each time. I use it for both brewed (French press) and espresso, changing the grind appropriately, and it’s smooth and delicious either way. And you can’t beat the price — I’ve paid a lot more per pound for lesser quality. This will continue to be my go-to for the foreseeable future.

We're a die-hard Cafe Bustello coffee fans. I'm really particular and snobby where Coffee is concerned, I hate any and all coffee that I do not brew. We have a certain strength and boldness that we like, and we will not accept less. So when this little combo arrived and I realized I didn't get what I thought I had ordered I panicked. But it's pretty similar to my C.B. and while I did have to use 5 scoops for half a pot as opposed to our usual heaping 4 scoops per 1/2 pot. I don't mind that part though, I'm down for whatever necessary to get the job done. And I now have a great alternative for the times that C.B is ridiculously overpriced for whatever reason (I've seen it where the cheapest option was at least 10 bucks more than my normally rationally priced coffee.) I really liked whatever the white bag is, the greens were fine but the white had more kick.

The media could not be loaded. Alright, fellow coffee fanatics, let me tell you, I'm practically bursting to share this with you! My husband and I, We're the real deal when it comes to coffee. We're talking 4 or 5 espresso shots a day, black as night, no sugar, no milk, no nonsense. For us, coffee isn't just a drink; it's practically a sacred ritual. We need those good beans, you know? It's just how we roll lol.Since we moved to the US, we've been on a mission, trying just about every coffee brand under the sun. Honestly, it's been a journey. But then, one day, almost by accident, I spotted La Llave at Harris Teeter. And let me tell you, that was the day everything changed.I pulled a shot, and bam! I was hooked. Seriously, immediately. The taste is just...perfectly balanced. No bitterness, no burnt taste, just pure, smooth coffee goodness. And it's always, always fresh. But the real star of the show? The crema. Oh my God, the crema! You know that beautiful, thick, creamy layer on top of a perfect espresso? La Llave delivers it every single time. Our machine helps, sure, but these beans? They're the secret sauce for that amazing, dairy-free creaminess you see in the pictures I shared. It's just divine.Honestly, I really hope this brand sticks around forever because I can't imagine my espresso mornings without it. And here's the cherry on top: the bundle they offer is such a great deal. You get all this amazing coffee for less. It's a win-win!If you're an espresso lover like us, and you're looking for that perfect shot, you have to try La Llave. Seriously, go get some! You won't regret it.

i love a good cup of espresso but this does have a bitter burnt taste. the size of this bag and the fact its an espresso gring means it will last forever. over all i do like it

I give it 5 stars because delivery was perfect , product was in a good shape and there is nothing in regards that to complain. I bought Cafe La llave to compare it to Cafe Bustelo. So this is first time i am trying Cafe La llave. I like strong coffee and make it with regular filter coffee maker, add Chobani coffee creamer and sugar. Made my coffee with La llave this morning.. and just realized.. it is not strong enough the way i like it, and it feels all just like milk, it does not have the strong coffee smell. I have read many reviews.. both coffees are supposed to be dark roast , cuban coffee.. and some people have posted that they buy them interchangeably .. like whatever is on sale. That is not going to work for me, I am clear now that Bustelo is stronger smelling and stronger coffee flavor that works for me. This coffee la lave is very light, Not robust enough, so it might work for people that like it that way. Bottom line.. if you like strong smelling coffee, strong flavor coffee this is not it. This was just a test for me, and i am going to have to use this La llave coffee by mixing it with Bustelo to spend it, so bustelo can give me a boost that i like in a coffee.
