by AmazonIntenso Coffee Beans, light roast, 1kg (2 packs of 500 gms) - Rainforest Alliance Certified

I just ground and drank my first cup of Caffè Intenso, Light Roast Coffee Beans, and I have to say, it was a lovely experience. This was my first time trying this particular Amazon offering, and it didn’t disappoint. The moment I started grinding the beans, a wonderful aroma filled the air, which carried through beautifully into the pot as it brewed.As for the taste, it’s not particularly strong, which I found perfect for a light roast. It’s nice and smooth, with no bitterness or unpleasant aftertaste to spoil the moment. Just a clean, enjoyable sip from start to finish. For the price, I think it’s fantastic value - quality like this at such an affordable rate is hard to beat. I’d highly recommend Caffè Intenso Light Roast to anyone looking for a great start to their day. Off now to test it on my wife!

This Amazon Intenso Coffee Bean 2 x 500g pack is great value, certainly compared to my usual L'Or Onyx Beans which are around £2 more for 500g less.The beans aren't quite as well roasted as I prefer, but produce a good quality espresso with good crema. I have a digital espresso machine so I grind the beans before making the coffee and they produce a good ground coffee and a pretty decent espresso although there is a little bitterness at the end,If I mix this with some Lavazza Rossa ground coffee, the result is really good espresso, with the bitterness significantly reduced so I will buy again and continue to use that mix.Overall its a pretty decent coffee at a very good price.

Very nice coffee. Very different from what I'm used too. Find it to be quite mild but very pleasant. Not overly strong. The quality seems excellent for the price.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Tasty Light Roast – Perfect for Bean-to-Cup MachinesReally enjoy the taste of these Caffè Intenso light roast beans. Smooth, balanced flavour that works perfectly in my Krups bean-to-cup coffee machine. Great value for a 1kg pack, and the fact that it’s Rainforest Alliance Certified is a nice bonus. I’ll definitely be ordering again!

Wasn't expecting too much for these coffee beans, but pleasantly surprised. Used in bean to cup machine and gives a smooth rounded taste with a surprisingly good crema. Good value.

I do not know what happened, I buy this product for a long time, but the last time - over-roasted, the smell after grinding - there is a smell of burnt coffee, and well so burnt(Most likely I will look for another( and, of course, with such falling quality and price increase, it's just ugly!!!!

I’m utterly taken with this Espresso Crema coffee—so much so that I’ve got it on Subscribe & Save, ensuring there’s always a fresh supply in my kitchen. The flavour is what keeps me hooked. The combination of dark chocolate and caramel notes is indulgent yet perfectly balanced, creating a smooth, full-bodied cup every time. Despite being a light roast, it has a satisfying richness, and with a strength of 4/5, it’s ideal for starting the day on the right foot or savouring a quiet moment.One of the standout features for me is the crema it produces—thick, velvety, and incredibly satisfying. It adds an extra touch of luxury to each espresso shot, making the experience feel barista-level right at home.The versatility of these whole beans is also a dream. Whether I’m grinding them finely for a sharp espresso or going coarser for my cafetière, the result is always spot-on. Knowing it’s roasted in Italy adds a touch of authenticity, and the Rainforest Alliance certification means I can enjoy every sip with a clear conscience, knowing it supports both farmers and the environment.If you’re after a coffee that delivers a delightful flavour, a brilliant crema, and ticks all the right boxes ethically, this is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended for all coffee enthusiasts!

Great roast great flavour. Not too heavy a flavour. Just right for an intense espresso but just as good for a larger coffee.
