KimboCrema Intensa Whole Coffee Beans, Medium Roast, 1kg Bag

Beans smell very nice fresh and strong in the best of ways ..It's a nice change from Lavazza but I feel Lavazza has more body.Nice packaging though wish brands would switch to plastic free already! to avoid VOCS leaching into food.

Very good quality and well packaged.

Quality coffe ! The smoothness and creamy flavour yet strong aroma of a good Coffe !

In my experience, Arabica/Robusta blends can be a bit hit and miss: you want the richness of Arabica with the nutty, toasty flavours of Robusta but if it goes wrong the Robusta makes everything taste of brewed wood.I think this gets it right, and I was very happy to have bought this at the deal price of £6.50 for two bags. I would buy it again at that price but for me, there are plenty more coffees to try before I'd want to come back to this at full price.A real coffee expert/nerd, even without a prejudice against Italian/dark roasts, would be horrified by the state of the beans: a good portion of the one bag I've opened consisted of chips and flakes. It didn't affect my enjoyment of the coffee but a more discerning drinker may disagree. Be warned - I've never seen anything like it.

We absolute love Kimbo coffee and we’re so pleased to be able to order beans on subscription as it saves the bother of trying to find them in shops and means we’re always guaranteed great coffee at home. The 1kg pack size is perfect for a month’s supply for 2 adults with an espresso obsession!This coffee is full of flavour and has a strong full bodied taste. I sometimes find Kimbo ground when made in a Moka pot thick, slightly bitter and strong but we buy the beans and have a bean to cup machine which is perfect. I haven’t tried grinding these beans and using them in the Moka pot yet.Overall highly recommend.

I had no issues with delivery or item itself, the coffee is a little strong for me, but excellent value price/quantity ratio

Your experience will massively depend on how you brew your coffee and what style of drink you make.In espresso form (flat white, 36g double shot) it is extremely tricky to get right. On my machine (Rancilio Silvia v6) I either got a very strong espresso on the upper limit of what I'd drink, or an overkill burnt tasting espresso that left an oily texture in the mouth. Thankfully it only took 2 or 3 extractions to dial it in and the beans remained consistent to the end. Still a bit too punchy for my taste, but not unpleasant.As a cafetiere coffee these beans work extremely well, with an impressively balanced flavour. I'd imagine for this reason the beans would work just as well in most non-espresso forms.If you normally make longer or single shot espresso drinks (like lattes) these beans may be a bit more forgiving. I just find Lavazza red beans much more versatile and they remain my go to off the shelf beans.

Nicely surprised, 2 order to be delivers today.Nice strong flavour when brewed in my Mocha Pot. Medium dark roast, not bitter. Good coffee for espresso.
