Starbucks Ground Coffee, Dark Roast Hot or Iced Coffee, Italian Roast, 12 oz

This coffee is dark roast as it states in the description. It has a wonderful freshly ground aroma when you open the bag. Even better when it's brewing. I usually buy the whole bean coffee and grind them myself, but this is definitely comparable to fresh ground. Even though it is a dark roast it is very smooth and balanced. This is my go-to ground coffee when I don't have time to grind the beans myself. If you're looking for an amazingly satisfying cup of coffee you need to try this!

I've been a dark roast enthusiast for years, and this Starbucks Italian Roast has officially become my everyday coffee. From the moment I opened the bag, the aroma was incredible – you can immediately tell this is quality coffee. Flavor Profile: The tasting notes of dark cocoa and toasted marshmallow are spot-on. It has that deep, bold intensity you want from a dark roast, but with a surprising sweetness that keeps it smooth rather than bitter. It's slightly darker than regular Espresso Roast but doesn't have the smoky, burnt edge that some French roasts can have. It's that perfect middle ground for dark roast lovers. Quality & Freshness: Being 100% Arabica beans sourced from Latin America and Asia-Pacific, you're getting premium coffee at a reasonable price. The FlavorLock packaging keeps it fresh, and every cup tastes as good as the first. It's the same quality Starbucks serves in their cafés. Versatility: I've used this in my drip brewer, French press, and moka pot – it performs beautifully in all of them. The grind is consistent and ideal for multiple brewing methods. Value: The 18 oz bag lasts a good while and the price point is excellent for the quality you're getting. Much cheaper than daily coffee shop runs! Bonus: Love that Starbucks is committed to 100% ethical sourcing with Conservation International. Great coffee I can feel good about drinking. If you love a bold, full-bodied dark roast without harsh bitterness, this Italian Roast delivers. Highly recommend!

This coffee was fresh as if I went to Starbucks myself. The roast color was as expected and the quality was definitely giving Starbucks Drive Thru. The flavor definitely made me reorder!

This coffee always tastes great. The Italian and French varieties of Starbucks coffee just have the most rich delicious taste.

Good quality coffee, but this particular flavor has a very strong and bitter taste it being a very dark roast.

Good dark roasted coffee. Smells and tastes great. I don’t like to support starbucks, but I have to admit it’s really affordable and good. Smooth, not too acidic for such a dark roast. I use a pourover and drink it black.

Good one

Great blend but too strong for my wife’s taste. I definitely would buy it again even if I have to make a separate pot for myself!

これは、香り深さ濃く後味最高です。

Beautiful aroma and quality product BUT to be careful as this price it is only for one pack!!

Un tostado más profundo que Verona o espresso roast. Sin pretensiones es un café que sabe a café. No hay acidez, no hay amargura, las notas tostadas predominan. No siento el caramelo y los bombones tostados, pero no los necesita. Trátenlo con cariño en una cafetera moka (italiana). Lo tomaría siempre solo, pero para aquellos que les gusta tomarlo con leche (latte, capuccino) es ideal por qué no se pierde en la dilución.

Il caffè è buono,nonostante l'etichetta 'Best before ' sulla confezione indica una data,già passata .

Great Good
