Customer Reviews
Delicious, delightful, and a great deal too By Jen Stelling (Cohoes, NY)
Love these beans! The chocolate coating is creamy and smooth, and a little more generous than most. It has a sweeter taste than the coating on some other varieties (sweet, but not cloying). That balances well with the sharp flavor of the espresso bean. The appearance of these is pleasing also. There is an even distribution of dark chocolate, white chocolate, and a pretty speckled milk-on-white that conceals a milk chocolate underlayer.

Gourmet Expresso Beans By K. Smeltz (Morgantown, Pa)
Seattle Gourmet Foods is a company I found through Amazon.com The past few years I have found myself ordering more and more on the internet.I always skipped the reviews because I just thought they were probably written by people who benefited from my purchase. However, I have become very dependent on what my fellow shoppers have to say,and really surprised when I realized Amazon allow customers comments good and bad to be printed.

Anyway that being said I will tell you this product came and was delivered as promised.There are so many in this barrel shaped container it almost seems bottomless.The chocolate covered gems are so rich and creamy with just the right amount of chocolate covering the crunchy fresh expresso bean in the middle.Just a few will do you packing a delicious caffein buzz! I thought they were a bit expensive when I first placed my order, hoping the saying "you get what you pay for" was true I orderd anyway and am very pleased with the value. Getting what I paid for and a whole lot more.

My husband and I ordered these for our wedding reception and they were a hit! Everyone loved them and they arrived quicker then I had anticipated!

Yummy! By Amy Cook
Loved them, they were awesome! I recieved them to an APO AE address 1 week after ordering. I have never had a package get here that fast.

Best Choco covered espresso beans! By Lar1 (SLC, UT)
I purchased 2 of the 5lb bags (hoping for the best of course - better deal on shipping if you buy more then 1 bag. This was a blind purchase as I have never tried this brand before.

I was and am very impressed with the quality of this product, I have tried several different brands from amazon as well as from local coffee shops of choco covered espresso beans, I got all the ladies addicted to these things with my last purchse from a different seller/chocolatier so I was buying for 4 for us to split. To say the very least everyone is very satisfied and they can't comment as they have their mouths full of chocolate/caffein goodness at the moment while running up and down the aisles at work;)

One review did say these had espresso bits which is false, as soon as I read that review I took half the chocolate off and yes.. there is in fact 1 intact bean deep inside the chocolate. The chocolate to bean ratio is a little much but since the quality of the chocolate is so good it is no problem what so ever! The quality is there, great buy and trust me buy multiple of the 5lb bags and share/split with friends (or keep them all I know you'll love them)

Addictive By Pat B (NY)
Have the container of these sitting out in the open and any time anyone walks in they grab a handful. They are very addicting, easy 5/5 stars.
