– Espresso Roast, Dark Roast, Whole Bean Coffee 450g (Pack of 4)

Excellent beans for a bean-to-cup machine! The flavour is rich, bold, and smooth with just the right balance of strength without being overpowering. It grinds perfectly and consistently delivers a fresh-tasting cup every time. Having it on Subscribe & Save is a real bonus – not only does it guarantee a great price, but it also means we never run short. If you enjoy a reliable, café-quality coffee at home, this is definitely worth it.

OK, is good. Has a dark smoky taste. It's. Bit expensive For my daily grind. It's lovely, but before I commit to it as my bespoke, I need to try more.

Nice robust flavour and decent value for money considering the significant soaring cost of Arabica beans this year.

This is my favourite coffee. I drink it on the high street and although I can't replicate the same taste at home, I still haven't found a better bean for making lattes at home. However, this batch was produced in November last year, so just over 6 months ago and there's just under 6 months left until the best before date, so why ship this so late? Today's date is 10th of May, for context. I generally get though a packet a month having a coffee at home almost every day. I do take a few holidays too though, so that evens out the packet a month over 6 months. It just means I might finish these 6 packets after the best before date and I don't understand why it's sat in a warehouse for half of it's shelf life, so i've deducted a star as it relates to the quantity sold and the likelihood that this might be past it's best when I finish it. That said, it is proving difficult to source these beans locally these days, hence me purchasing this way and it's a small issue relating to my drinking habits. For those who get through a batch quicker, then this might not matter to them.

Fabulous. Makes a cracking cup of coffee

Great coffee

Product review: STARBUCKS Espresso Roast Dark Roast Whole Bean Coffee, 200 g (Pack of 6) I grind beans with Krups grinder and then use coffee with my Melitta LOOK Therm filter coffee machine. I consider myself quite a hobbyist when it comes to coffee (not quite a connoisseur yet) and occasionally I buy beans from local Belfast roasters (SD Bells) but they are quite expensive so not my typical everyday coffee, just special occasions. As grocery prices go ridiculously high (and Sainsbury's increased this Starbucks from already high £3.40 in Dec '22 to £4.40 in Jan '23, so goodbye Sainsbury's) , I am always on the lookout for good coffee at reasonable price. I am truly in love with this Starbucks Dark Roast but I always mix my beans - sometimes with Lavazza and sometimes with other newly discovered brands. And I can always taste the distinctive kick form Starbucks in the finished cup. One last comment for the price: I have added this product to my wishlist when it was priced at £20+ (can't remember exactly) and my recommendation is do NOT buy this if it's priced at more than £18 because it's simply OVERPRICED at that level, nothing to do with quality. Keep it in your wishlist or subscribe to get extra discounts. In the end, it's a lovely coffee full of strength and aroma and I will always come back to it.

So far the best espresso coffee money can buy, tried many different ones but I always come back to this one

Starbucks Dark Roast to dla mnie kawa absolutnie wyjątkowa. Intensywna, mocno palona, z wyraźnym charakterem – dokładnie taka, jakiej oczekuję od porządnej filiżanki kawy. Jej smak jest głęboki i pełny, z nutami gorzkiej czekolady i karmelizowanego cukru. To nie jest kawa dla osób szukających delikatnych, owocowych nut – to kawa dla tych, którzy naprawdę chcą poczuć moc i wyrazistość. Na tle innych mieszanek Starbucks i kaw dostępnych w popularnych sklepach, Dark Roast wyróżnia się zdecydowanie. Dla mnie jest najlepsza – wszystkie inne wydają się zbyt płaskie, rozwodnione albo po prostu nijakie. Dark Roast daje mi to, czego potrzebuję: mocne pobudzenie i smak, którego nie trzeba „ratować” dodatkami. Jeśli ktoś szuka prawdziwie mocnej, klasycznej kawy, która nie boi się intensywności, Starbucks Dark Roast jest świetnym wyborem.

Super lekkere pittige koffie. Ideaal voor expressomachine

Have been ordering this for months and the last order I received wast tasting slightly off. Just checked the date and realised all bags were best before November 2025, so almost 3 months prior.

TOP! Immer pünktlich geliefert und lecker!

Usato con macchina automatica Philips serie 5000 macinatura media risulta ottimo, credo uno dei migliori che abbiamo mai usato tra le più di 40 miscele o più provate nel tempo, siamo rimasti stupiti, perché risulta bilanciato in tutti gli aspetti e pur essendo arabica non ha quella punta di acidulò che a molti risulta fastidiosa. I chicchi come potete vedere da foto allegata, sono grossi e quasi tutti della stessa dimensione (pochi anche gli spezzati o rotti) la tostatura è molto forte tipica dei paesi nordici, ma fatta in maniera eccellente e non frettolosa , così che non abbia nessun sentore di bruciato o amaro, anzi risulta dolcemente caramellato. I chicchi sono molto,unti quasi da lascare residuo nel sacchetto e sulle mani, ciò è un bene, perché significa che hanno utilizzato chicchi pregiati e soprattutto recenti e che anche impacchettamento e distribuzione sono state rapide. I pacchetti da 200 grammi risultano ottimi perché non rimane così caffe in giro per troppo tempo e quindi ogni volta che si usa il prodotto lo si troverà sempr al top senza degrado dovuto alla lenta ossidazione di aria e luce. Costo equiparabile a marche ottime, e ci sta tutto vendendo il prodotto (al netto del sapore che può non essere amato da tutti dato che il caffè è una cosa molto personale). per che dice che è caro e lo cerca di confrontare alle marche discount o commerciali, dico solo che il caffè se è buono si gusta con più piacere, e quindi meglio una tazzina in meno ma un prodotto che appaga. Provato anche in cappucccini e macchiati e credo che il top questa miscela lo raggiunga con il latte macchiato, il caramellato del,caffe si sposa perfettamente con il latte schiumato, una spolverata di cacao o cannella e avrete il top.
