My go to coffee
Absolutely love these capsules!! The flavour is rich, bold and smooth with the perfect intensity. Such a good strong coffee without being bitter. Super easy to use and consistently great every time. Definitely a go to for a daily coffee
Beautiful taste
I regularly use these capsules for my Nespresso pod machine. I Always stock up on them when they are on special at my local supermarket. I use three each day and love the flavours.
Strong Kick
I like these pods for a strong kick start to my day, however they are a tad bitter for my liking. I buy them when they are on special which makes them reasonably priced.
Worth a try
For a supermarket pod I think these are great tasting. If the intensity of this flavour isn't for you try out some of the other products in the LÓR range. I enjoy these as an espresso and the purple one for lattes. The dark smokey flavour makes them great for after a dinner party or when you have been drinking whiskey.
VALUE FOR MONEY
beautifully packaged and presented this coffee offers a smooth velvety wake up that will leave you coming back each morning for the perfect start to your day
Best Affordable Coffee Pods
When i'm budgeting and can't afford my Nespresso or Starbucks, I get these and they come pretty close in terms of quality and taste. I prefer to have these as iced coffee and I find 12 is the perfect level of intensity for that.
Espresso at home !
I have been extremely impressed with L’OR coffee capsules. Have tried multiple strengths and they are all just as good as each other, even the decaf is great. Intensity 12 is smooth and gives you the hit you need without being too bitter. Isn’t expensive to buy which is a bonus and also often goes on sale. You really can’t go wrong with this brand, highly recommend.
Bold and smooth espresso
It is rich, smooth and bold flavour without being too bitter. It makes a good everyday espresso. Good on its own or with some milk
Good standard coffee - slightly smoky
My wife is the main coffee drinker in the household and she will often pick up L'or at the shops. Onyx has a dark, smoky flavour with notes of chocolate. Great that they are compatible with Nespresso machines.
Decent coffee, especially on sale
This coffee is intense and smooth at the same time. It pairs really well with oat milk, my go to milk. I always buy these capsules when they are on sale, otherwise they are on the pricier side (as are many other brands unfortunately).
