I have an espresso machine with a hopper, so the only way I buy coffee is whole beans and most of the time, it’s something geared towards espresso (with words like espresso/crema/etc). This is probably my very favorite coffee. I usually buy it from Lavazza’s website, but was surprised to see it available to ship from Walmart. It’s so rich and creamy. Smells amazing, tastes bold without tasting bur Shai · walmart.com
