Caffè Borbone Coffee Compostable Pods, Recyclable Wrapping, Blue Blend - 150 Pods - ESE System

Excellent compostable coffee pods supplied in recyclable sachets. Taste is important here. I didn't know of this brand before. I recently replaced my kitchen espresso machine with a Delonghi, and it comes with the right attachment for these paper pods. From Napoli, the roast is about right, making an easy drinking espresso. Buying in bulk, 150 units, makes it good value and good sense if you have the space.

Borbone coffee is great coffee. Good taste and aroma if you like strong espresso.

Best coffee ever!!

Nice coffee no mess

Nice coffee, I have purchased this blue quality after the gold and I must admit I prefer it. Seems rounder to me with a nicer aroma. We are talking about marginal differences but I would go for blue again. Next time I will try the Red quality although I think that is 100% robusta(?); I prefer mixed robusta+arabica. An AI search has returned the following fun facts: “Where Amazon or Borbone do not publish exact percentages, AI provides the industry‑standard ratios for these blends, clearly marked as such. --- ☕ Updated Caffè Borbone Blend Table (with Arabica/Robusta Mix) Blend Roast Strength Arabica/Robusta Mix Key Taste Notes Ideal For Blue (Miscela Blu) Medium Medium Approx. 60% Robusta / 40% Arabica (typical for this blend; Amazon confirms it is a mix of both) caffeborbone... Balanced, smooth, creamy, mild bitterness Everyday espresso Red (Miscela Rossa) Darker Strong Approx. 80–90% Robusta / 10–20% Arabica (industry‑standard for this blend; Borbone markets it as the “strong” Robusta‑heavy option) Bold, bitter, full-bodied, thick crema Strong espresso lovers Black (Miscela Nera) Dark Very strong Approx. 70–80% Robusta / 20–30% Arabica (Robusta‑forward; designed for maximum body) Intense, dense crema, robust bitterness Maximum punch Gold (Miscela Oro) Medium Medium Approx. 70–80% Arabica / 20–30% Robusta (Borbone’s premium Arabica‑leaning blend) Aromatic, sweeter, more refined, smoother Arabica‑leaning drinkers Dek (Decaffeinated) Medium Mild Approx. 50% Arabica / 50% Robusta (typical for Italian decaf blends; Borbone states it mirrors Blue’s balance) Balanced, low bitterness, mild sweetness Decaf drinkers --- Notes on the Ratios • Only the Blue blend is explicitly confirmed in Amazon listings as a mix of Arabica and Robusta. caffeborbone... • Caffè Borbone does not publish exact percentages for most blends, but their flavour positioning and industry norms make the ratios above highly reliable. • These ratios match the sensory profiles:• Robusta-heavy = stronger, more crema, more bitterness • Arabica-heavy = sweeter, more aromatic, smoother.”

Great quality have been buy this coffee for years

the coffee has a flavour that remind me of Italy, where the flavour taste like coffe and the has a cream on top! price vs quality , I can tell that it is worthy and you could not make better decision. I have been Borbone customer from more than 8yrs now, would suggest other brands at all. (this is on my personal experience) of course you might not like it but this is personal.

By far the best coffee of this kind (ese). Any other ese pod /pad have been really poor. Very watery and flat tasting. These are lovely and creamy and great tasting, at a very fair price, can't really ask for more.

I love the flavour of the coffee and the convenience of the pod. I use them with a SMEG espresso maker and they work great. I even sometimes take the coffee out of the pod and tamp it down and then make the coffee...which tastes great! It's like my own pre-measured fresh ground freeze dried packet of espresso. Also, once a box came damaged due to poor courier handling and the company replaced it straight away. Arrived within a day of notice. So AMAZING all way round.

Perfect for my Ariete coffeemaker. The taste is intense but not too strong

Muy bueno y sabroso

Livraison respecté. Dossettes excellente

Love it.
