As an avid espresso drinker and long-time Nespresso user, I’ve found a new favorite: Illy Intenso Ground Espresso + reusable capsules (I use it with my Nespresso machine).My Pros:1. It delivers a bold, robust flavor with deep cocoa notes. The zero-plastic, sealed aluminum packaging preserves the coffee’s freshness and flavor, far superior to traditional multi-layered packaging.2. The recyclable aluminum container is a step towards sustainability, reducing plastic waste.3. Switching to Illy + reusable capsules has saved me a significant amount, estimated between $500 to $600 annually, compared to Nespresso capsules.4. No preservatives or additives, offering a real expresso experience.My Cons:1. It lacks the variety of Nespresso capsules.2. Manual capsule filling requires some effort, but the cost savings and environmental benefits make it worthwhile.3. The superior quality comes at a slightly higher price point than regular coffee brands.If you are like me and appreciate the convenience of Nespresso but seek a more sustainable and cost-effective option, Illy Intenso Ground Espresso paired with reusable capsules is an excellent choice.For those curious, I use Triplot reusable espresso capsules.

It's value for the dollar is excellent. Taste for me was awesome. I used this in my flourless chocolate cake to enhance the flavor and it was so good. When I made it as a cup of espresso, I fell in love ❤️ I didn't taste acid. I tasted coffee! Functional in terms it woke me up in the morning. So 5 out of 5

Coffee itself is good, but amazon sent it without a lid. There was the pressure seal and nothing else. So, I had to seran wrap the top. Next time I'll just get it at world market and save myself the hassle. I used mine in a latte using a nespresso maker and it came out beautifully smoothe and with a strong coffee taste (minus the acidity).

Amazing espresso. Just amazing. Best out there as far as I am concerned. Unfortunately it goes fast and it isn’t cheap. Love it though.

Be very careful when you open the canister. It is pressurized for freshness! Cover it with a dish towel and open it in the sink.This Illy Intenso ground makes THE BEST pot of espresso with a moka pot. Everyone must try this espresso!

The gold standard. This is probably the best, by far, pre ground espresso on Amazon. I've tried them all.It's also the most expensive. Your next best option is Cafe Gavina, which is decent at 15 cents less per serving (based on 18 gram dose). Illy is noticeably better though,
