Caffè Borbone Coffee Respresso, Red Blend - 100 Capsules - Compatible with Nespresso®* Home Machines

A smashing strong brew. Excellent value for money.

Great taste! Proper Italian coffee

Been using pods for last 2/3 years in my L'Or machine, tried L'Or, Lavazza & a variety of the Amazon flavours with 99% success & only a handful of dud pods not puncturing. Saw the Borbone's on offer so gave the Red ones a go. Each pods wrapped in it's own foil sachet, OK it's unique & may improve freshness but pretty wasteful I guess. That aside it's immediately obvious by the volume of Crema on the top of the cup this is a world apart from the others I'd tried in the past but the taste confirmed it, full of flavour which continued for some time after finishing the cup. Never been to Italy but it reminded me of traditional Greek & Turkish Coffee's with a feint powdery edge to the Crema with one hell of a kick in strength. Definitely ordering more.

great coffee great price

The Coffee is nice tasting when you eventually get a cup full. Took six capsules & over 10 minutes to make to cups full. Very concerned that the back pressure could actually cause damage to the coffee machine, I contacted Amazon for a refund. Shame as nice tasting coffee

As an Italian living and working abroad, good Italian coffee is something I can’t go without. This is not the first time I’ve bought Caffè Borbone, and overall I’ve always been quite satisfied with the product. The red blend has a strong, rich taste, exactly what you would expect from a proper Italian coffee. However, I’ve experienced a few issues. In some packs, the number of capsules is not always accurate: I’ve sometimes counted fewer than expected (around 95, and in some cases even about 80). Also, recently — especially with this order — several capsules do not work properly and no coffee comes out, for no apparent reason. Overall, the coffee itself is good, but these issues affect the overall experience. I hope it’s just a defective batch.

Delicious coffee, amazing rich flavour for the price. Capsules are plastic and design is such that machines won’t pierce the top, instead they have a small valve in the top, through which hot water passes under pressure, so you need good water pressure in your machine, and if you haven’t already, descale the machine to maintain pressure. As the capsule has a valve they need to be sealed in a bag to keep the coffee fresh, which is why they are packaged differently to aluminium capsules. Capsules work fine in my machine, albeit the flow is slow. The price point is the same as the Aldi capsules I buy, but the coffee is so much nicer.

Just wow! I bought this because I ran out of my original Nespresso capsules and, during covid lockdown, it seemed that the Nespresso delivery would'n't happen for another 4 days. As an expresso enthusiast, I couldn't wait that long so I decided to give the red Borbone Respresso a try, next day delivery as expected (Thanks Amazon Prime!) and boy is this coffee good! It's better than my favourite Nespresso flavour (Kazaar) at less than half the price. The coffee is rich, smooth with plenty of foam, which I find most compatible capsules lack. The taste, well the taste took me back to the best coffees I had in Milan or Rome, in short, my best purchase this year! Love it, and I'll probably switch at least 2 thirds of my capsules to this. Two things I have to add: 1. I read in several reviews that capsules were missing, out of curiosity, I actually counted them, all 100 were there; 2. The packaging is indeed not environmentally friendly as each capsule is enclosed in its own non-recyclable pocket, at the same time, this might be why the coffee is so good, when you pop it open you can smell the aroma immediately; as a side bonus, for me, as a frequent traveller having my own portable Nespresso maker, this is actually a benefit, and the body of the capsule is made of hard plastic that doesn't deform in a bag like the originals do.... Funny story, my Nespresso capsules order ended arriving the same day :))

Ich habe die Caffè Borbone Respresso-Kapseln (Red Blend) ausprobiert und bin wirklich zufrieden. Die Röstung ist perfekt: nicht zu bitter, liefert aber genau den richtigen Energieschub, den ich am Morgen brauche.

Excellent et pas cher

I genuinely do not understand how this coffee can be rated so highly. Not putting 1 star as the capsules work well (although the machine takes quite a long time to process them), they were delivered in time and good condition. However the coffee tastes terrible. The first one I tasted, I thought I had mistakenly reused a capsule from the day before but it's actually how it tastes. Like a coffee capsule that was used the day before and reused.

Great coffee and got it at a great buy on prime day. I just stocked up. Love this coffee

Excellent coffee. Works great with our Nespresso machine. Perfect strength for us. Highly recommend.
