Kimbo Capri Coffee Pads Reviewed – Italian Espresso with Style

Reading time: 2 minutes

Italian espresso pleasure in everyday life? The Kimbo Capri coffee pads offer just that – a blend dedicated to the world-famous island of Capri. This composition combines Mediterranean ease with intense roasting tradition. According to Kimbo, the intensity is rated 10 out of 13. We tested the pads under real-life conditions – using a Faber Pro Deluxe coffee machine with standard 95 °C thermostat settings.

In Switzerland, many of us associate the Kimbo brand with the well-known Autogrill rest stops along the Italian highways. For many, the first real “Caffè” – what we affectionately call espresso – is a must on every trip to Italy. A short stop, a strong sip, a taste of Dolce Vita. Kimbo coffee pads bring exactly that feeling back into our cups at home.

Close to Napoli in taste – but more refined

As soon as you open the package, a spicy, chocolatey aroma is released. The first sip starts off strong, followed by a gentle fruity note and a pleasantly bitter finish. The similarity to Kimbo Napoli is noticeable – but Capri comes across as more elegant, smoother, and better balanced.

The crema appears in a beautiful dark brown to golden hue. It’s less compact than the more robust Kimbo Pompei, yet still consistent and appealing – perfectly matching the balanced aromatics of the coffee.

Part of an Italian series – Capri, Pompei, and Amalfi

The “Capri” coffee pads are part of a series by Kimbo dedicated to Italian locations. Alongside Capri, there are also varieties such as Pompei and Amalfi. Each blend offers a distinct aroma profile and caters to different taste preferences – from especially bold to smooth and balanced.

Best results with medium to longer espresso shots

We were especially impressed by the Capri at a medium volume (around 40 ml). Even slightly extended, the aroma remains stable and balanced. For those seeking Italian coffee pads with character but not too much intensity, Kimbo Capri is an excellent choice.

Our conclusion: We don’t assign ratings – our goal is to share real-world experience to help you better understand the product. Kimbo Capri offers stylish espresso enjoyment with a clear identity – perfect for lovers of authentic Italian coffee culture.
