This is my first order of Lavazza Whole bean decaf espresso and i love it. Rich dark whole beans with a hint of coco flavor that creates a beautiful crema! I am a espresso connoisseur
drinking 3 quad espresso's a day. I use this coffee to form a blend i created i.n order to "tame" my 3 espresso quads a day! I mix the following coffee's in a container before pouring into my grinder hopper- 1 cup Lavazza Dek Whole Bean Decaffeinated Dark Espresso, 1 cup Saquella Caffe Bar Italia 100% Arabica Beans, 35.2 oz and 1 cup Saquella Caffe Espresso Dekaf Tin, Whole Beans, 8.8 oz, as you can see each quad is 2/3 decaf, so its only 3 shots caffeine a day! All my coffee comes from Piccolo's, and the Bar italia 100% Arabica coffee is 1 kilo or 2.2 pounds! Once i found Saquella Caffe Bar Italia espresso, it was the end of my life long Illy fcoffee or me. Incase you dont know Illy no longer makes a dedicated "espresso" coffee anymore and 1 8oz can where i am in ny is $17, Saquella Caffe Bar Italia 100% Arabica Beans, 35.2 oz is usually $22 and on sale now for $10.95,(exp date 11/21) i just bought 5 bags and there is no difference to note, get some now while onsale!!!
