 WonderfulOct 28, 2011

This has to be the best 'at home' espresso I have ever had. I love a very strong cup of coffee, and whenever I go to that chain place, you know the one I'm talking about, for coffee I get a regular coffee with a shot of espresso (red-eye?). It costs me an arm and a leg too! Now I can do it at home.
Bold, rich, aromatic and it tastes less acid-y than the other espressos that I've tried...this was an absolute pleasure to drink. I don't even bother with the frother to top my coffee, because the espresso has just enough crema on top to make this an even richer drink.
Yum.
AND if you use the subscription service like I did, you can save yourself at least 15% and never have to worry about remembering to re-order again!

Love, love, love this flavor!Aug 31, 2011

This is my favorite flavor out of all the coffee, teas and espressos for the Kaldi. I've tried them all more than a few times each to give them a relatively fair review, but this one tops my list. I do have to admit that I prefer espresso drinks over coffee and teas, so take that into consideration.
The Italian espresso is smooth, bold and full of flavor, but doesn't leave a bitter after-taste. The other two espresso flavors leave a taste in your mouth where it feels like something's missing.
My favorite espresso drink is an iced latte, and this makes the perfect latte. Two shots of the espresso with about 6 ounces of milk makes my perfect drink!
Out of the three caffeinated espressos, the Italian tops the list for flavor, then the Premium and lastly the Continental.
Great espresso - but maybe not from Amazon.Apr 05, 2012
By N. D. Saunders
Just what I was looking for. This makes a very smooth espresso with good crema. Consistent shot every time, I was pleasantly surprised at how good the espresso actually is out of the CBTL machine, particularly this flavor. My go-to espresso from now on.
Update: 4/27/12 Original review was of the pods that I bought locally at Target. The ones from Amazon were noticeably more bitter. Also, the top of the pod on the Amazon pods were not as "domed" as the ones I purchased from Target, indicating that maybe a seal had broken or the pods were bad. It's bearable to drink but not nearly the great experience from the ones I got at Target, which I assume were fresher.
Tastes really goodMar 11, 2012

This capsule gives you a shot of a good Italian espresso. It is not too bitter, not too sour. Has a great aroma, but the crema (foam) might be a tad thin. I yet have to go through the entire lineu of all CBTL coffees, but this is a great choice for someone who needs a great espresso quick!
Great shot of espressoMar 08, 2012
By STBurns
Really not a lot to say other than CBTL has yet another great capsule. I've owned a basic espresso maker and a Tassimo and this CBTL coffee is far better than anything else I've made at home.
