Delta Cafes Gran Espresso Whole Bean Coffee, Portugal, Naturally Roasted, Intense with Crema, 2.2lb

My wife lost her taste for coffee due to COVID. While we were touring Europe, our guide highly recommended Delta brand. My wife says it is the best she’s had.

I spent a lot of time in Portugal as a little kid ( 3-14 years of age) on and off while visiting family. And the espresso available at many of the coffee shops on street corners was something I grew to really enjoy. This smells and taste like what I'd get from the delta and small mom and pop cafés near Porto and Vila real. Easily better then any espresso roast I can get ahold of in Houston. The crema is thicc, the coffee is very mild and not too bitter, something non coffee drinkers can enjoy easier then the darker espresso's some people are used to. The blend of robust and arabica beans gives this a higher caffeine content but the way it's roasted eliminates the strong bitterness and dark flavor profile robust normally has. This is a solid 10/10 bag of beans for me. Will always grind and keep them in a air tight container for me to use when desired. Don't forget to serve with some pastries in the morning, And liquor beirao at night. (Attached)

I was very excited when I found this online. I love this brand & usually drink the Lote Chávena & grind the beans myself.. but when I got back from Portugal I couldn’t find any of the unground beans on Amazon so I decided to give the Delta Gold a try as I’ve had it before in Portugal & it was very good. I’m not sure why ..as the bag wasn’t expired & has plenty of shelf life left. If you like slightly sour coffee then maybe you’ll like this.. but it is not for me. I prefer a much smoother mellow coffee. I’ll finish the bag but I won’t be reordering. Update - I did Brew this in a Bialetti Moka Pot & it helped the weird notes I was tasting. Still in my opinion not as good as the Lote Chávena in bean form but better.

After trying so many coffee brand this was the best one

If you like a good coffee and quality. You never go wrong. The best coffee, taste, flavor, fragrance

This is a good quality coffee. I was happy with the freshness and the roast. I prefer a darker richer coffee than this but I feel this is not a quality problem with the coffee itself. This would be great for making fancy coffee drinks.

But where is it? It was supposed to be here today. Except small delays on this item.

Received coffee that is expiring less than a month from purchase/delivery date. And for some reason this product falls in a category of non-refundable goods as if it is a battery or a chemical. Don’t buy!
