Just pay the extra $$ and get the real deal.
Bought these based off the seemingly good reviews. My first cup of "Intenso" tasted horrible. NOTHING like the Nespresso pods. I will test one or two more different flavours before demanding a refund. Will post an update... Update Jan.29, 2018 I only had to try one additional pod to decide I needed an immediate refund. This coffee is HORRIBLE. I went for something a little more "tame," (compared to the "Intenso" one), meaning an "Arabica" blend. This is a standard type of coffee that almost anyone should be able to get right. Not this one. What horrible, bland flavor. The cream on the brew looked nice. I had high hopes. But I was severely disappointed with my first sip. The smell is like that of 10yr old coffee filters, and the flavor not much better. Buyer beware, if it's too good to be true (in this case, the price), it probably is. I'll be buying the real Nespresso pods from now on.
