LavAzza Pure Caffe Italiano

I never thought I'd say this, but I've finally discovered coffee that tastes better than Starbucks- LavAzza; Italy's favorite coffee! 

Cafe Enzo, Salcedo Street, Makati City
I made this wonderful discovery when my mom took us to Cafe Enzo in Salcedo Makati for breakfast this morning. Cafe Enzo is a small but very cozy coffee shop with a very modern interior. It's very relaxing and perfect for those people who wants to go somewhere where they can relax and take a break from their usual everyday routine. A certified coffee lover, I am delighted to discover that they serve the world famous LavAzza coffee. I decided to try out their delightful LavAzza coffee selections in exchange of my usual Cold Coffee Fusion; and I wasn't disappointed.


LavAzza was born in Italy; being one of the coffee capitals of the world. People who have not tasted Lavazza coffee beans yet, do not know where to go for the best taste of coffee. It offers different flavors, from decaffeinated to espresso. Everything looked good from where I can see it, and after making a tough decision, I chose the LavAzza Crema e Aroma. The Creme e Aroma was a strong blended coffee made from the finest Arabica and Robusta beans. The cream and dash of chocolate gave it a sweet flavor with a distinct full bodied taste. Unlike Starbucks, the LavAzza Crema e Aroma doesn't have a "sustagen-like" taste. It's chocolate is well blended with the coffee so you can definitely appreciate both the coffee and chocolate with every sip.


Crema e Gusto
LavAzza offers several different coffees you can choose from. The Gran Filtro is the simplest, most basic coffee they have. It does not have that acidity that comes with the roasted coffee beans and the flavor is very smooth. If you prefer a strong cup, then I highly recommend the LavAzza Caffe Espresso. Made from 100% specially selected Arabica beans, the Caffe Espresso has a dark, intensely aromatic flavor. If you prefer a more metro style of coffee, then nothing beats the Qualita Rossa; UK's biggest Espresso Coffee Brand. It is made from a unique blend of Robusta and Arabica beans to produce an aromatic, smooth, well rounded flavour. Makes superb Cappuccino, and Lattes. Versatile blend, great with or without milk. Other coffee selections include the Qualita Oro, a premium selection of the best smooth and aromatic Arabica beans. blended with a sophisticated taste and a pleasing intense aroma. An ideal coffee for an  Espreso or Flat White. The Tierra is a pecially selected blend of 100% Arabica beans accredited by the Rainforest Alliance. Supporting sustainable development in plantations in Columbia, Honduras and Peru 

Qualita Rossa
We were so delighted with LavAzza that we decided to buy 2 coffee bags to take home. We got the Caffe Espresso and the Crema e Gusto. I'm sure that I will enjoy every cup of LavAzza even while I'm at home.
LavAzza is just as expensive as Starbucks and Coffee Bean; but what sets this brand apart from it's competitors is the rich aroma and flavor it brings to the coffee table. Any coffeeholic would surely agree with me and fall in love with LavAzza when they taste a cup. try one too- and see how quickly this coffee brand becomes your favorite.
