Review on Illy Intenso Dark Roast Ground Espresso Coffee - Bold Flavors in 8.8 oz Pack by Robert Grimm

I only ordered this because I couldn't use my EBT card for Starbucks espresso (don't know why) I only use Starbucks but I found this and when I got one Received order day later, I didn't realize it was under so much pressure and I pulled the tab and it exploded in my nose. It smelled great. I was about to throw out what was left but decided to give it a try and never thought I'd say this, but it's better than a Starbucks espresso! From my own bitter experience, I have found that you open the jar SLOWLY! I mix it with my Starbucks Cafe Verona. I will continue to buy Illy and will check out their website to see what else they have. If you're picky about your coffee, like I have been for 50 years, and an avid drinker ONLY from Starbucks, you have to try Illy's espresso! You'll be as surprised as I was, remember: after unscrewing the outer cap, SLOWLY OPEN THE TONGUE!
