Review: A Truly Extreme, Full-Bodied Espresso - For espresso lovers who prefer the darkest and most intense roast possible, the L'OR Espresso Onyx pods (Intensity 12) are an absolutely superb choice and an excellent alternative to the Nespresso Original line. This 200-capsule pack is ideal for the daily commuter or anyone needing a powerful, zero-compromise coffee kick to start the day. The Intensity 12 Difference L'OR markets the Onyx as an "extreme" blend, and it lives up to the name. The flavor profile is characterized by: Dark Chocolate & Bitter Cocoa: It delivers a powerful, roasted base without tasting burnt. The strong bitter cocoa notes cut through milk exceptionally well. Subtle Spice: There are nuanced, spicy undertones—hints of ginger and liquorice often mentioned—that add complexity to the lingering, distinctive aftertaste. This prevents the coffee from being just a flat, dark roast, giving it a rich dimension. Perfect Crema: When brewed as a 40mL espresso, the aluminum capsules consistently produce a beautiful, thick layer of velvety crema, which is the gold standard for quality espresso extraction. Performance and Compatibility These capsules use aluminum, which is essential for preserving the deep aroma and flavor and ensuring a reliable extraction process. Nespresso Compatibility: The L'OR pods are fully compatible with Nespresso Original machines (and L'OR BARISTA machines). I experienced no piercing issues or watery shots, which can sometimes be a problem with third-party capsules. They fit and seal perfectly, guaranteeing maximum pressure for optimal flavor delivery. Value for Bulk: Buying the 10-pack (200 capsules total) offers outstanding value compared to purchasing smaller boxes or proprietary brand pods, making it a very economical choice for high-volume coffee drinkers. Minor Consideration Not for the Mild Palate: At an Intensity 12, this is a serious, aggressive dark roast. If you typically prefer Lungo or milder, fruity coffee blends, the Onyx may be too pronounced or smoky for your taste. It’s definitely designed for those who enjoy the "dark side" of coffee. The Verdict The L'OR Espresso Onyx is a triumph of intense flavor and practical design. It consistently delivers a dark, satisfying, and full-bodied espresso that holds its own against premium brands, all while offering perfect compatibility and great value in this bulk pack. If you want a pronounced, dark-roasted coffee that gets you moving, look no further.
Review: Great decaf pod at reasonable cost - Great balanced pod between cost and flavour……if you prefer decaf but still want that coffee taste , these hit the spot at reasonable cost

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you find Nepresso coffee machine**
A: Yes, it's in my kitchen. 🤣😂😅

**Q: Do these capsules work with Nespresso Vertuo Plus machines?**
A: No, they are for the original Nespresso machines. Follow this link for the vertuo pods

**Q: What is the caffeine content of a ristretto (strength 11) pod?**
A: No idea, I choose coffee for it's flavour (nutty, spicy, fruity ...), not the caffeine content. This one is intensity 11 and I find it too strong for my espresso sized cups, as a ristretto it would be very powerful. I prefer the more mellow Supremo which is intensity 10. Maybe you should buy a few different packs from the supermarket first before committing to 100 capsules you haven't tasted. I tried about 8 different ones before finding my preference.

**Q: Hi. Anybody know if these are 100% aribica?**
A: I believe so

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great decaf pod at reasonable cost
*by B***H on 20 December 2025*

Great balanced pod between cost and flavour……if you prefer decaf but still want that coffee taste , these hit the spot at reasonable cost

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic variety, rich flavour and café-quality coffee at home
*by R***P on 3 February 2026*

I’ve tried quite a few compatible pods over the years, but this L'OR Espresso Variety Pack is easily one of the best I’ve had. The biggest win is the variety. You get a really nice mix of strengths and flavour profiles, from smooth and balanced to darker, more intense blends. It’s great being able to switch things up depending on the time of day – lighter in the morning, stronger after lunch. Quality-wise, the coffee tastes genuinely premium and full-bodied, not thin or watery like some third-party pods. The crema is thick and rich, and the flavour is deep and aromatic – very close to what you’d expect from a café espresso. They work perfectly with my Nespresso coffee machine machine too. No leaking, no jams, and they pierce cleanly every time. Just pop one in and it runs smoothly. I also like that the capsules feel well made and sealed properly, so the freshness is clearly there. Every cup tastes consistent. For 100 capsules, the value is excellent. Great taste, good selection and reliable performance – I’ll definitely be ordering these again. Highly recommended for anyone who wants better coffee without paying café prices.
