Made In Italy - Coffee Beans Classico Napoletano 2kg | Traditional Blend, Medium Roast, in two Bags

Excellent coffee, great value and great flavour. I have a subscription now !

I have bought these beans before very fresh and great taste. No bitterness. Easy to set the grind. I do have change but always come back to these beans. Excellent price.

Having read a number of reviews about foreign objects being found within the coffee beans such as glass and stones I was a little apprehensive, however I still went ahead with my purchase and now I understand the issue. Please don't be distracted by these reviews as these coffee beans are roasted to perfection and taste great in my espresso machine. The route cause of the issue I believe is the coffee beans and not foreign objects! The coffee beans are lightly roasted meaning that any cheap or integrated grinder would struggle grinding them as even my single dose grinder did initially trip the electric struggling to grins such a light roasted coffee bean. Please bear this in mind the lighter the roast the harder it is to grind the beans and so if your grinder has stalled its not because there's glass or a stone in with the beans it means your grinder is cheap and cannot cope with lightly roasted beans.

It's a present to go with new coffee maker ..huge bag ..well pleased

The intensity is not there for me! Doesn’t taste anything like coffee. I like strong coffee but unfortunately for me this is not it.

Tbh, I usually buy from just 3 brands, but since it was Christmas I thought I would buy something else. These beans are amazing! Lovely smell and a robust but mild flavour. Put simply; a taste of Italy at home. I’ve bought a few more kilos of their different strengthens and they don’t disappoint either. Lovely!

A nice brew. Not too strong and a good crema. I need to go one notch finer to get decent pressure but it's not a problem.

Looking at the reviews I do see a lot of positives, yet the last few reviews, including now mine, are all complaining of weak flavor, makes me wonder if there's been a bad batch lately. Either way, I have to review what I got and it's incredibly disappointing, even compared to similarly priced coffee beans. The taste that is there is nice, it's just that there's not much of it, and that's me using an extra 5g of beans than I usually would, like I said, the flavor I can pick up is nice, but it tastes as if someone took a nice cup of coffee, emptied a third of it, and topped it back up with water. I also believe these beans are too old, which makes me doubt the 'roasted in small batches' claim, the beans seem incredibly dried out and have trouble with uneven grinding, I'm using the same grinder and hario v60 dripper I always use, yet grinding these beans results in half turning to a very fine grind almost immediately, and the other half being incredibly course and some beans in left in big chunks. I've also experimented with various different speeds/pulses etc and not been able to resolve this issue, this also isn't an issue with my grinder, as I've been having no issues with any other beans, the only time I've ever experienced something this before is when I've accidentally left some coffee beans laying around too long.... I want to add that though that the weak taste isn't just from poor extraction, even when I've made sure to get them to a consistent grind, which ended up being more of a fine espresso grind, too fine for drip coffee, the resulting cup of coffee was someone simultaneously over brewed yet watery. I won't be buying again and don't recommend
