Battistino Italian Gourmet Coffee for Nespresso OriginalLine Machine (Chocolate, Orange, Caramel, Hazelnut, Vanilla) Flavored Pods - 100 Pod Variety Pack

I admit, I was excited when I ordered these, because flavored espresso sounds delicious! Well to start with, 7 of the pods had partially unattached foil on top, and upon unboxing, there was loose coffee grounds in 3 of the 5 Boxes. After cleaning that up, and sampling 3 of the 5 varieties that are included, I was really disappointed in how weak these are, and have only a fraction of the Crema that the branded ones actually produce. These are not a good value for the money in my opinion, the other company’s sampler I ordered at the same time were MUCH better, and faithful to the original brand pods. Most importantly, these are NOT returnable, nor do I have any idea why they tout a 60 day satisfaction guarantee in the description. I’ll be calling Amazon’s customer service later this morning to inquire about a partial or full refund if possible.

I would not call these compatible with the original line. I have an Essenza mini and you can't just put a pod in there. It drops right through. You had to maneuver and manipulate. If you are lucky enough, it will catch and you can get some kinda coffee liquid out of it. But many times the machine caught it wrong I guess and I got barely anything out of it. The flavor/coffee might be OK BUT what is the point if I just cannot get it to perform?

Omg...I’m clapping when I tasted the orange coffee, I bought it because I’m addicted to Hazelnut coffee and I love their original line. But this collection! Wow, wow, wow! Thank you thank you thank you for creating such amazing line of coffee! I love you guys so very much! And I’m just so happy to found a company that puts that much heart into creating such amazing product! Bravo!

When it came, one of the pod was broken. So it made a big mess as I opened the box. Coffee grinds flew everywhere and had to clean up... that’s why 3 stars.Other than that, it’s great. Taste great and it works great in my nesspresso citiz.I usually don’t like chocolate flavored one because most of it doesn’t taste enough chocolate. But this one actually has good chocolate flavor and I was surprised.Orange one and hazelnuts are both good too. I haven’t tried other flavor yet but I’m pretty sure we will purchase again. Hopefully no mess next time!

1st I’m not a flavored coffee drinker but decided to try this. Just OMGosh, I’m reordering and will keep reordering. They work fine in my nespresso machine, flavor is not strong but I’m fine with that I have strong espresso pod for that. Great variety

These pods are not as good as original Nespresso however, they are half the cost and still taste great. To my surprise, orange was my favorite flavor but, these are all pretty good. The foil on the bottom is a much better design than the full plastic pods. There are small holes beneth the foil allowing water to flow through. The creme is on par with Nespresso brand pods.

Delicious coffee, if you can get a cup.... It clogged my machine, capsules failed (see picture). I spent 15 minutes 2 days ago getting one cup, then about 20 minutes today. I had to spend time running plain water through the machine to unclog it.

These capsules are often the wrong size and fall through the machine. That requires you to carefully place it in the holder. Also, not particularly good. I will not buy again.
