120 ESE Pods - Lungo Crema Intenso

Great company to deal with and top quality coffee ese pods at a brilliant price. Matched perfectly with our De Longhi machine these pods produce a dark, rich espresso, with no bitterness. Sufficient for a large cup/mug if after a longer drink. Just remember to warm the cups before dispensing particularly if electing a small espresso.

Smooth flavoursome coffee. Has a nice aroma and hints of chocolate in the aftertaste.

I thought I would try these coffee pods as they quite a bit cheaper than the ones I usually buy. They were delivered quickly as promised. Not as much creme as my usual ones and tastes a little weaker but I suppose that’s because they are cheaper. Value for money though.

Not nice, they tasted and smelled stale, sent them back.

Having enjoyed the cialdissima mixed ese pack (three flavours), I tried these as they offer a more potent flavour hit. Very good, definitely lived up to the hope of a punchy espresso! If you fancy variety or not sure if you want the strength of this, try the mixed pack - the strongest in there is still a step down from this. Yum!

The coffee is very bitter. We usually buy Lavazza pods but tried these as it was a more competitive price. Will go back to the old faithful. Seems you get what you pay for with coffee.

Very, very nice. These are a dark roast, but without the bitterness found in so many dark roasted beans. Great service and great pods. Bellisimo!

I very rarely review products I buy from Amazon, but I've been left with a large box of these that I don't want to use. .I bought them due to the good reviews which mention the strength of the coffee. I wonder if the quality has changed recently as I found them very disappointing. There was virtually no coffee aroma on opening the individual packets or on brewing. The coffee looked strong, but barely tasted of coffee. I tried adding extra shots & ended up with a denser but still largely tasteless brew . I used the pods in a compatible Gaggia machine, which usually produces excellent results. I've gone back to ground coffee and will not waste my money on these again. Just by way of comparison, I used a Senseo pod machine for years, with excellent results from the dark/strong pod varieties.
