Freshly manufactured and absolutely flavorful full bodied coffee
I purchased them in mid-April 2024, and upon checking, they were manufactured on February 23, 2024. Despite being a couple of months old, I find them to be in excellent condition. With an expiration date of February 2026, they appear to have a decent shelf life ahead. Having been a dedicated consumer of illy coffee for about two decades, I was eager to try out their E.S.E. pods. While I have long used illy's iperespresso capsules, I've become increasingly mindful of the environmental impact of plastic pods. Therefore, I was pleased to discover that the E.S.E. pods offer a more eco-friendly alternative. I purchased the new espresso machine from illy that can brew ground coffee and these E.S.E. pods. As someone who values both convenience and quality, I must say, they have exceeded my expectations. The Intenso Dark Roast, in particular, provides a strong and full-bodied flavor that I thoroughly enjoy, making it an ideal choice for my morning coffee fix. I highly recommend illy's E.S.E. pods to fellow coffee enthusiasts looking for a convenient and environmentally conscious brewing option.

Great flavor, but some machines may struggle
This produces a rich, flavorful espresso shot that gives a nice extra punch to a latte or cappuccino. However, my Delonghi Dedica EC680 couldn't reliably produce a full shot of espresso with these pods*, and I suspect it's because they are very tightly packed. The machine would throw up an error indicator about halfway through, if I was lucky. Other brands of espresso pods appear to work just fine in my machine, but to be fair I haven't tried the "bold" flavors of these other brands, which may cause similar issues. Great flavor and a good product, but it unfortunately didn't work for me. *Yes, I am using the ESE Pod basket from Delonghi.

Great flavored Espresso
I use these ESE pods with a Braville Espresso machine with ESE insert. I most like the packaging- the envelope is large enough where the tab is not caught on the edge seal like most other brands. The flavor is intense espresso which I wanted to make different drinks. Each pod will make up to 2oz before overprocessing and loosing it strength. I like 1.5oz cup for each. The head is perfect each time. I just ordered more.

Conditionnements aléatoire
Le compte est bon, mais les capsules ont été livrées en vrac dans un carton en lieu et place des boîtes distributrices .

Un bon café italien comme vous l'aimez...
Les dosettes sont compactes et prévues pour une cafetière expresso 15 bars. Le café est long à percoler mais le résultat est parfait ! Un bon café

1 mes hasta el vencimiento
El producto llegó y es tal como se describe. PERO la fecha de empaque indica que tiene 23 meses y caduca en un mes. Esta empresa está vendiendo su stock antiguo en Amazon. NO LO COMPREN.
