This espresso was rock solid and comparable to the dark roast ristretto from the capsule. It doesn't jump out on any front, but it extracts well. It leads with dark chocolate and then has some complexity with a smoky flavor. The crema was a bit light-medium for this espresso but it wasn't so bitter it needed the crema to save the mouthfeel.Cupping Method:Espresso in my Delonghi 660

As far as I can tell the silver one is just called “Espresso”.
This one has a very nice aroma and crema. smells almost like a chocolate espresso cake right after you make it. It's just OK in the cup. everything you would expect from an Italian style espresso is there. it's not bitter. It's just a tad short on the complexity and depth of flavor.Cupping Method:Short espresso in Delonghi 660

For a medium roast espresso, this is smooth, milk chocolate, and has a slight orange and nutty hint. The crema was a bit weak. It is pretty non-descript, but not bitter and easy to drink for a quick caffiene hit.Cupping Method:I only had a single Bestpresso capsule of this type (I brought it back from a hotel in Quebec City and had it at home).
