Lavazza Super Crema Whole Bean Coffee is fantastic! The beans grind well and brew a smooth, rich coffee with a perfect balance of sweetness and creaminess. The aroma is inviting and fresh, making every cup a great start to my day. It’s great for espresso lovers and works well with other brewing methods too. Definitely a high-quality coffee that I’ll keep buying!

Update (+2 Stars):
After a few days of the coffee airing out in my grinder and also changing my grind from medium to coarse (highest setting on my OXO Grinder), the coffee seems to taste significantly better when brewed and the unpleasant smell has dissipated. I’m increasing my rating of the coffee for this reason, as it actually is good enough to be a daily drink for me at this point, but I still don’t believe the price is worth it as you can purchase from a local roaster or have a higher quality coffee subscription for around this price, so I likely won’t be buying it again unless it goes down closer to $9/pound. That said, I’m definitely glad now that I’ll be able to enjoy it in the meantime.
Original Review:
I tried this coffee this morning, as I didn’t want to keep paying the high price for the coffee I normally bought from a local roaster, but honestly it’s regrettably not that great. I wish that I had read the description better to see that it was 40% robusta coffee beans, because it is definitely lacking 40% of the flavor that I’d rather it have, and while I do feel a big caffiene punch from it, that’s about it. It’s oddly weak-tasting, even when brewed strong. It’s a little tiny bit chocolatey/hazelnutty like the description says, and it’s very fruity, but two qualities in coffee I don’t care much for are excessive (unbalanced) fruitiness or acidity. This one does pass the acidity aspect (it’s a bit more on the bitter side, but pleasantly bitter if that makes sense), but yeah, it’s definitely not a coffee I’d serve anyone. I don’t have an espresso machine, so I just tried this as pour-over coffee in a V90, but it ain’t good and I’m not buying it again. It may be good for cold brew or espresso — it DOES taste like cold brew I’ve gotten at a coffee shop before — but not for pour-over coffee.
Also, some people say that they LOVED the smell of this coffee as soon as they opened the bag, but I had the exact opposite experience. It smells like that overwhelming almost burnt smell that you smell in some coffee shops (the ones that serve cold brew and have a sealed concreet floor). IF that is the kind of coffee you like, more power to you!! This probably is a roast that will satisfy people who prefer robusta beans or just want the hit of caffeine, but it just isn’t mine.
Positives:
– Bitter but not TOO bitter — much better than coffee which is overly acidic
– Was roasted recently (September 2024 — bought in December 2024)
– The flavors they say will be there — hazelnut, chocolate, and fruit — are indeed there
Negatives:
– It tastes very weak, even when brewed strong
– The fruitiness flavor is very dominant — it’s not well-balanced in this aspect
– Smells like the smell I can’t stand in most coffee shops
– 40% robusta beans and yet priced like 100% arabica coffee blends

I’ve been using Lavazza Super Crema Whole Bean Coffee every single day in my Breville espresso machine, and it’s quickly become my go-to. The taste is absolutely top notch – smooth, rich, and balanced, with delightful notes of hazelnut, brown sugar, and a creamy finish. People always compliment how my espresso turns out, and I can’t blame them.. it’s that good :). Then there’s the price – for the volume of high-quality beans you get, the value is insane. It feels like a steal!

The aroma is intoxicating, filling the room with a warm, nutty scent that enhances the experience before the first sip. The richness is impressive, delivering a velvety crema that makes every cup feel indulgent.
The quality is amazing, made from a blend of Arabica and Robusta beans, ensuring consistent flavor and freshness. For the price, it’s a great value, offering premium taste at an affordable cost. If you want a flavorful coffee blend, this one is a fantastic choice! Highly recommended for coffee lovers who appreciate depth and smoothness!

This coffee is absolutely amazing! The aroma is rich and inviting, with subtle hints of nuts and sweetness. The beans are fresh, evenly roasted, and smell incredible as soon as you start grinding them. The taste is smooth, without any bitterness, and it makes a beautiful creamy crema just like in a good café. Perfect for espresso, cappuccino, or latte. I’m so happy with this purchase and will definitely buy it again!
