Earlier this year I bought a De'Longhi Magnifica ESAM4200 Bean to Cup Espresso/Cappuccino Coffee Machine.I had not shopped for coffee beans before so I needed to experiment a little. This review is based on a comparison between the Illy Medium and Dark Roasts, their Monoarabica Ethiopian, Colombian, Brazilian and Guatemalan and a variety of Whittards beans.This was my favourite blend of all. The flavour is smooth and light with a slightly more citrus flavour than most. It doesn't have as much of a caffeine kick as some of the Indian and Brazilian roasts but I was shopping more for the flavour.I've been drinking this every day now for the last three months and have taken out an Amazon subscription accordingly,

Very similar to the regular medium roast Illy, but with floreal tones.If I put too many grams of beans, to make a stronger espresso, the jasmine notes are overpowering and give a bad taste.I keep my machine settings to about 40-50%, meaning 6-7 grams of espresso per cup, and it tastes rather good, but it won't give you the classic caffeine kick.If you prefer a stronger coffee, go for the regular version, as the dark roasted is too dry when increasing the amount of beans per cup.I still need to try the Brazilian version which should have sweet chocolate notes and might be the best of the lot!

I don’t like most coffee but I love this.A friend who is a complete coffee nut told me about this coffee and I took his word for it and ordered some with fingers crossed. He was right, it’s gorgeous.I have probably reordered about seven times now, and, given that each pack comes with six large tins, I would say that makes me a fan.It tastes great, and tastes great consistently. It is expensive but gagging on cheap coffee and having to spit it out with subtlety is more expensive. Especially on friendships...Buy a pack and give two to your friends.

Good deal at the mo' on this and the Brazilian jobbie.Because of the lighter colour of the tin and beans, I was expecting this coffee to be milder than the Brazilian.However, after much tasting, I actually find this a tad more sour/acidic - or 'fruity' as I think this taste is sometimes described.The beans grind well and give a good crema. Coffee comes out full-flavour imo.The tins are quite thin but deffo reusable and have a quality airtight seal.

I picked up two cans on Amazon in August 2015 for 7.36 delivered. I though there must be something wrong with it - but it turned out to be absolutely delicious. I keep popping back to buy more - but the price has never been less than 12.00 per pair since then. I would say it is worth it even at that price - but having tasted the bargain, I am hanging on. Great beans though - totally live up to the description with really great floral notes.

These beans grind very nicely for my espresso machine (better than many other beans), and have a great taste. Although these are more expensive than other beans I have used, I find that you use less for the same strength. After I queried the price as being higher than Waitrose, they have now dropped the price significantly. I also recommend the Brazilian offering onthe same range.

its a really great super smooth taste, best from lily, less milk more strength, not as strong as illy standard beans but just an amazing cup of coffee all i need and all i want , try it you will not be disappointed, you must have a bean to cup machine so adjust to your taste,iv never said this about any other beans , you will be in coffee heaven

Superb tasting espresso, having been on a quest since buying my new Mellitta Cafeo Bistro to find the perfect bean to cup. So flavoursome and aromatic with just the right kick and absolutely no bitterness. I am also impressed with the service as arrived on time. Would highly recommend trying when back in stock as great value for money.

'great coffee, tried a lot of beans, from micro roasters to supermarkets, these are up there with the best. Don't do exprresso but americano and cappucino latte brews are outstanding. No worries dialling in the grinder either, once set I never move it for tin after tin.

I normally go for stronger brews but have to say that this coffee is surprising well flavoured, I have played around with the grind and produced very nice results with bot a coarse grind for a drip filter and fine for an espresso, I will definitely buy again

My favourite Illy Coffee so far. Lovely strong smooth taste. I generally drink cappuccino style and this has the perfect strength and flavour.Highly recommended and you do definitely receive 2 tins of 250g coffee for the price so good value as well.

Amazing, almost as good as the Ethiopian ground coffee I bought in Ethiopia. Highly recommend. I use the coffee in both an expresso machine (the crema is amazing) and moka pot, and both produce smooth coffee. Highly recommend

Out of all the coffees in this price range, this has to be the best one for me, I'll be purchasing again once my stock runs out.By the way I thought it was one pack but it's 3 packs, now that's a deal.

This coffee has a superb flavour with an lingering after taste that leaves you with a craving for more.An added bonus: the screw top cans are great for storing odds and ends in when empty.

It is true: the price indicated is for TWO tins of coffee, not one. I ordered them several times already. I love these beans, they are very delicate and the coffee is exquisite.
