Great coffee out of Philadelphia. They made a good name for themselves years ago. Then continued the tradition.

Great coffee, quality declining?
Flavor Name: Nizza - Medium Roast
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 4)
Nizza is our favorite every day coffee. The quality over the past year seems to have gone down unfortunately. For instance, in my most recent purchase two of the four boxes (12 oz ea), there were several "stone like" coffee beans that caused problems with our coffee grinder. We have never had that ha
ppen before. I'm sure had I purchased from laColombe directly that they would have refunded but Amazon's "window" for refund had already passed when I finally opened the box.

Coffee is caffeine king.
Flavor Name: Nizza - Medium Roast
Size: 24 Ounce (Pack of 1)
If you like going to bed late or not sleeping at all, this is your coffee. It's the best tasting coffee, period. So so good. It's just too strong on caffeine. Normally great. But not anymore since I work from home now haha

My ‘house espresso’ blend
Flavor Name: Nizza - Medium Roast
Size: 24 Ounce (Pack of 1)
A few years ago I handled an arbitration in Manhattan and ended up living at the Tribeca Grand hotel. That turned out to be a short stroll away from a very comfortable La Colombe café, where I satisfied my espresso habit for a few months. Nizza is the blend the La Colombe cafés use for the standard e
spresso pull. While I have tried dozens of single origin and blended beans for espresso at home, Nizza has been my ‘house blend’ since then. Until recently, I ordered direct from La Colombe, but discovered that amazon will do prime delivery and sells the 24 ounce format for less than buying direct. I’ve ordered dozens of times now; never have I received ‘old’ coffee, ground coffee instead of beans, or less coffee than I paid for. I drink straight shots, pulled from an ECM Synchronika, ground in an ECM V-Titan grinder. My wife drinks her espresso with milk. Each of us goes through two or three 20 gram dose/40 gram pulls a day. Nizza is NOT ‘very dark roast’ as some have said here. It is a Full City to Full City+ roast, well before the beans begin to get oily and turn toward black. The Nizza flavor profile is exactly what I look for in my straight shots: dominant tones of creamy milk chocolate and toasted hazelnut, moderate acidity. My wife tells me Nizza goes well with steamed milk — I don’t touch the moo juice, although I have had shots of Nizza marked with a tablespoon or so of foam and that’s a perfect macchiato in my book. I shoot for a 1 gram dose: 2 gram shot ratio, 200F at the brewhead, about 32 to 36 seconds extraction with a few seconds of preinfusion. I use a puck screen to minimize my maintenance needs, along with a stainless steel portafilter, VMS shower screen and VST 22 gram ridgeless portafilter basket. For some reason, I always find it is uncommonly easy to dial in grind, tamp and time with Nizza beans; and I always get a pretty reasonable head of crema. I don’t think there is robusta in the blend, as often is the case with blends from Lavazza and other Italian commercial blends, so you won’t obtain the kind of crema —or the blast of caffeine — you may expect from those. I’m pretty serious about my coffee and have been for about half a century. I see some very negative reviews of Nizza here on amazon and have to wonder whether the reviewers had one of those now and then bad experiences that occur with any product, or with fulfillment of an order — or whether they just don’t have a clue what they’re doing. In any event, I’ve never been disappointed with this blend; or with amazon fulfillment of my order. And at around $20 for 1.5 pound of beans of this quality, buying the 24 ounce format Nizza whole bean coffee from amazon is a very good deal.

good beans, but quality concerns
Flavor Name: Nizza - Medium Roast
Size: 24 Ounce (Pack of 1)
While I appreciate the smooth texture and acidic profile of La Colombe coffee beans, particularly for my tiramisu lattes, I was disappointed to find they expire in just a month. I anticipated better value, as the beans I buy from the store have a shelf life of a year; perhaps this was simply an older
batch. I hope for fresher inventory upon my next purchase.

Fragrance & taste is the best
Flavor Name: Nizza - Medium Roast
Size: 24 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The combo notes of milk chocolate, nuts & brownie can be a very inviting smell! Taste is even better. We buy the coffee bean so we have the pleasure of grinding it ourselves to use in our espresso stovetop pot. The fragrance when we grind, then brew is the next best thing! Best variety from Colombe.
