Solid substitute for the more expensive branded ones, good quality and taste - 100% reordering

A very tasty blend. Smooth with plenty of flavour. Fully compatible pods with Nespresso- and much cheaper.

I am writing this review in respect of Sumatra and Bologna capsules from this range, although I have sampled most of the range in recent months (and enjoyed them all).The coffee is enjoyable and certainly represents excellent value for money, particularly factoring in that it is organic and fairtrade. Like Nespresso's own range, there are coffees of various strengths and flavours, though it may take some experimentation to find your favourite. The flavours are readily discernible and distinctive, from fruity, nutty, all the way to liquoricey... I am no coffee expert but I am happy with these pods.One of the issues that seems to plague 3rd party capsules in general is the fit with the machine. In some cases I have even had the machine stop working due to pressure problems. Thankfully no such problems with realcoffee capsules, which fit tightly and afford the same flow as the original range.however, I am knocking a star off, because they are not *perfect* in this regard - there is still a small amount of water seepage. In fact, I did my best to scientifically measure this, and discovered that there is about 1ml (or just over) produced when using a Sumatra capsule.Now, I have learned from another manufacturer in the past that supposedly "I am part of the problem" because I tend to use the espresso capsules to make a lungo size drink. Well, so be it: but I bought this machine for convenience, not to become a barista ;-) So, I may not be alone in making longer drinks from espresso capsules.So, I measured leakage after one espresso shot, then again after making a lungo size drink (another shot from the same capsule). In fact, most leakage occurred in the first phase of the cycle. See pics.I just keep a small piece of kitchen roll in the base of my capsule tray.

Like the variety. Good strength

Excellent selection of coffees for a great price. Definitely recommend these.

Reasonably good coffee. The amount in each pod needs to be increased for a decent lungo. The pods work but are a little thin. This may be the reason that they sometimes catch in the machine.

It is very good worth theprice it tastes good

I chose a variety pack and most of them are good, some better than others . There are a couple i will buy again but the one called Roma in red capsule is vile and makes me sick, unfortunately 2 of the sleeves were Roma and had to be binned.
