how is this compared to the Lavazza Super Crema Espresso? which is better?

I like this one better. I tried both drip and espresso. A lot richer. I got it from Costco. $12.99 for 2.2lb bag.

How old were the beans you were delivered? Was it roasted more than a month ago?

Lavazza uses a Nitrogen packing method that keeps the beans fresh for a VERY long time. I got a bag of Gran Crema and it brewed (espresso) at what looked like a 1-week age (which is about the sweet spot for espresso anyways).

Which roast is best for lattes?

I think it depends on your taste. I don't like a really dark, burnt tasting roast myself, so I use the medium roast every day for the best cappuccinos and lattes. Really rich, full flavor. Yum!

How does it compare to super crema? Is it lighter in taste, more bold flavor or more deep chocolate taste? I'm a big fan of the super crema :)

The question asked comes under the Super Crema version. So it taste like the Super Crema.
