Lavazza Italian "Crema e Gusto" Ground Espresso (1 case = 20 x 8.8 oz bricks) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)OK, if you know espresso, you should know Lavazza. If you don't, you aren't paying attention. You can get this stuff in most specialty food stores, Italian markets, and upscale grocery stores, but why pay anywhere from $5.50 to $7.00 a brick when you can get a case of vacuum packed loveliness for $4.50 a pop? I'm half way through mine since ordering, and the last is as fresh as the first. I'm guessing I could wait another year and it would still be fine.
In case you dont know Lavazza, the Crema e Gusto is a mild blend - very smooth, a bit chocolaty, and a very nice texture and mouth feel. Best served piping hot. I make mine on the stove top stainless Alessi three cup and it never fails to please. At half the price of Illy, there is no comparison. In case you like Illy, this is a more robust blend then they make - Illy is probably the mildest and smoothest espresso I know, but it doesn't do it for me.
Enjoy!
