Lavazza: Caffè Espresso

I have one of these coffee pots:
The Bialetti Moka Pot.
It was a great pickup and it's already saved me a lot of trips to the coffee shop.  I only wish I'd found out about these in college!

I drink coffee every weekday and the moka pot gives me two mornings' worth of coffee, so I end up using this 2-3 times each week; the day-old stuff isn't nearly as tasty as the fresh, but it's no less effective.  Since the time that I bought this back in September, I've been trying out different brands of coffee, so I figured I should start keeping track of which brands work out and which...not so much.

Lavazza Caffè Espresso
This Lavazza passed the test: not so strong as to be bitter but certainly flavourful.  Only too late did I realize that all of the info about the coffee itself is on the side of the can, but that info is also at Lavazza's website.  It's a medium roast suitable for all coffee makers but optimized for espresso makers--the moka pot is technically not an espresso maker, but the coffee still seems to work just fine.

Verdict: would buy again.
