    I did this exact experiment. Being a coffee lover and someone who likes espresso, I tried all the cheaper espresso brands. My conclusion, Cafe La Llave all the way. I found it MUCH better than the others.

    I'm thinking you cannot go wrong with either of these... Have one of each in the pantry and enjoy the coffee.

    1) La Llave
    2) Bustelo
    I use an Expresso Machine on these coffee's .
    Bustelo is darker and more bitter but when you add sugar to the shot it taste like chocolate- Pretty good.
    La LLave taste smoother and requires less sugar but lacks that chocolate depth- I Use it for that reason.
    Bustelo is easier to find and cheaper so that makes it a good choice.

      If I did the math correctly then La Llave is cheaper than Bustelo. A 10 oz brick of Bustelo is $3-$4 and I got three 16 oz bricks of La Llave for $10, which is $3.33 for a 16 oz brick. Basically you get 6 more ounces with Llave for the same price. That's 60% cheaper which is quite a lot

      La Llave is cheaper for a reason, Bustelo is the best.

    Been a Cafe Bustelo drinker for years but ordered Llave because of the price and great reviews on Amazon. I gotta say it tastes better than Bustelo hands down and also smoother and less bitter. I got myself a new go-to.

    Cafe La Llave is my preferred of the three, but all of them are good when you are making a nice espresso.

    Bustelo is better out a drip coffee maker. That's my secret stash work coffee. La Llave is surprisingly good out of a French press.

    Buy a good burr grinder and whole beans. Otherwise, Lavazza espresso is great in a moka pot.

      Just tried Llave for the first time after drinking nothing but Bustelo for 7 years. Llave is smoother and less bitter with a more rounded flavor. Im really enjoying it on this Christmas morning 🙂

    ¡LA LLAVE! 100%
    I used to love Café Bustelo, but some years ago Bustelo was sold to a GRINGO roasting company and the mass produced flavor has never been the same!
    LOVE La Llave capsules in my Nespresso machine! Perfect espresso and crema every time.
