Gourmesso50ct Flavored Espresso Pods | Int.5 | Proudly Fairtrade | Compatible with Nespresso Original Capsule Machines | Caramel Vanilla Chocolate Hazelnut Coconut

This coffee bundle was a very very pleasant surprise. For months I was hesitant to try anything other than the original Nespresso capsules, but as they are so expensive, we can't always afford them and we really needed an alternative. The Gourmesso capsules work perfectly in our Inissia, the capsules puncture the way they should and the end result is a quite strong espresso with crema (to us it does not seem as strong as the Nespressos are, but still waaaay better than almost anything we can get in our area in a coffee shop). Some of the flavors in this bundle are really almost as good as the original Nespresso capsules, and of course, some are not even offered by Nespresso and are really wonderful. My favorite is the hazelnut, which is really amazing as a latte, and I also like the coconut and the vanilla, just as a plain espresso or cappuccino. The caramel could have more flavor, and I don't really like the chocolate from the Nespresso capsules, either.The only area of improvement I can really think of is the packaging - in the bundle we received only the hazelnuts are packaged in a way that the flavor is visible on the individual capsule. The rest are just covered with unlabeled foil. I'm not sure if the packaging of the hazelnut is an indication of a changed design, I would certainly hope so.5 stars overall, as the quality of these pods comes very close to what Nespresso offers at a much better price. We will definitely order them again in the future.

This is my 5th order with this brand. I love this variety pack. I like a sweet coffee and med bold coffee. These are all level 5 which keeps my anxiety under control, and keeps me awake enough to make it through my days with a 4 year old, work, and graduate school load.Packaging is great: simple, clean, sealed, pleasing to the eye.Taste: Delicious. This variety pack comes with vanilla, caramel, coconut, nutella, among others. Flavor is just enough, not over powering.Nespresso: I have not been able to part ways with my De'Longhi (why would I? It has lasted 7 years!). Compatible with this "older" or I like to call the FIRST/WOKE coffee model :)VALUE: 50 count for $30!! Need I say more? .60cAbsolutely recommend 10/10.

I tried these in my brand new Nespresso Inissa & they apparently broke it! :( After encountering a friends Nespresso machine and the awesome Aeroccino recently, I had to get them! These Nespresso 'compatible' capsules/pods by Gourmesso looked, tasty & were fair trade so ordered them too. After trying several cups with the regular Nespresso coffee capsules, my son & I wanted to try the Gourmesso pods. They fit but did not work! Water came out of the bottom of the Nespresso Inissa. When we took the Gourmesso pod out it appeared barely punctured on the back/bottom & not punctured at all on the flat top. On examination both the top & the bottom of the Gourmesso pods seem significantly harder than the Nespresso ones. After trying a couple times to use the Gourmesso pod, we put a Nespresso pod back in and now the machine will not puncture those correctly. So the harder Gourmesso pods appear to have damaged the Nespresso Inissia.In the pictures, the metallic bronze color capsule is an original Nespresso. The black plastic one on the right is this item by Gourmesso. I dented the thin metal Nespresso one with my thumbnail. The black plastic is much firmer and apparently harder to puncture. The top is also harder on the black one. It was not punctured either. I love supporting fair trade but do not recommend these pods for use with Nespresso Inissia.

I like it - the flavors are all generally okay, and they come through pretty well into the espresso. The price at $.50/pod is great, but the quality of the pod is questionable. At first glance, you will notice these pods have plastic bodies, unlike the aluminum body of the Nespresso pods. We had ordered these for a house party where I was thinking I was going to make espresso for some of the attendees. And we did, I made about 10 cups in an hour, however, 2 of the 10 didn't penetrate in the Nespresso machine. What happens when it doesn't penetrate is odd, because nothing comes out of the spout, but the next cup will do double duty (it must build up somewhere?) through the pod, so unless you know you had a misfire - you end up ruining another pod figuring it out. So, all said, two misfired, but I lost three cups in the process.Even with the loss of three pods, the cost of these pods versus the official Nespresso makes this purchase a no-brainer. I just kind of wish that there was an easier way to tell if you had a "dud" pod, as it would save some aggravation if you're not paying enough attention.

So, I rarely if ever review products I buy on Amazon so clearly I want to give my feedback on these pods. First off, let me say, the PRICE is great compared Nespresso pods. Value however? Not so sure. I’ve seen many reviewers complain about the build quality of the pods themselves. Personally, other than the fact they are plastic vs the aluminum of Nespresso, I don’t find them to be an issue at all. In addition, for the most part, the flavors are pretty good. Are they as good as Nespresso? Not even close. Definitely not as rich and flavorful, but for the most part pretty good. The exception would be the Hazelnut, which is almost undrinkable. So, with 10 pods that I pretty much have to throw in the trash, and the negative value of having had to consume two of them hoping the first was an outlier, I wind up with 40 pods instead of 50, and the value diminishes immensely.

I love this coffee, I ordered it for the second time all the flavours are delicious, the only one that was strong to my taste was the almond but i mix it with a regular non flavoured coffee and it was good.It is good quality and affordable price.

それぞれのフレーバーはしっかりとしていて気分転換には良いかと思いましたがコーヒーの味がほとんどしません。泡立ったお湯に香りが付いているといった感じ。ラテならどうかなと思いましたが砂糖たっぷりで飲めばなんとか。基本的にブラックでしか飲まないのでリピートはしません。

Not worth, flavor is quite mild. Suggest Cafe Royal instead.

One word : WAW !!!!It tastes so good and smells so good . From now on I will only be buying Gourmesso flavor its so rich and yummy . I am son glad i tried this. Nocciola , Cioccollato , caramel , noce di coco? Come on just try it and you will see how good they are :)

Variety of flavours. It’s ok coffee for Nespresso. Tastes a bit artificial (hazelnut).
