The real thing from Napels!Jan 21, 2005
By Nigel Potter
I have tried many espresso brands and grounds but none beat this one. Kimbo Gold is genuine espresso from Napels, famed for its incomparable coffee, and uses only the best Brazillian coffee beans. Its taste can be best described as potent with a real kick, but without any bitterness, and with a deep yet clear espresso flavour. I prefer it to some of the better known premium brands, such as the otherwise excellent Illy caffe. Its flavour is much richer and isn't even lost in a capuccino or latte - the milk if anything seems to bring out the flavour even more. I highly recommend this espresso to anyone who is looking for the real thing.

A gift turned traditionFeb 07, 2009
By Megan E. Sullivan
I received a 8.8 oz package of Kimbo Gold Medal roast as a present this February. A coffee snob, in which Starbucks is not the top rated brand in my book, I was reluctant to try Kimbo on a full Sunday morning brew.
However, I was surprised to find the finely ground beans espresso-worthy, and the bold smell immediately inviting. After a sip of the coffee, I was overwhelmed by the rich, fine, almost 'homegrown' taste. I am sorry that I cannot find this coffee in local stores, but I will invest in the company and its imports directly to my front door.
This coffee is commendable, and words do not do it justice. It is the perfect purchase for those who are looking to enjoy a weekend morning brew, those who are looking for a gift that will impress the coffee drinker who has 'tried everything,' or the many who cannot travel to Europe to drink a fine cup and experience chills from such wonderful, honest taste.
Another 5 star review....Dec 25, 2010

"45-mile-an-hour-couch-potato"
I'd give it 10 if I could!
My husband discovered it in a Navy Exchange in Italy a few years ago and occasionally would mention it in a manly-yet-wistful tone. Somehow I found it on Amazon and bought it for a Christmas gift this year and it turned out to be one of the best presents I've given him in the last 10 years! Naturally I had to try it, and I have to agree this is a great coffee. I'm not a connoisseur by any stretch of the imagination, but I do know there is life beyond Starbucks (I generally mail order from Peets). This is great!
This coffee is worth the time, effort and money to buy--HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
