Flavour profile
Lavazza Delizioso is described by Lavazza as a light, mild and aromatic blend, elegant and floral. Made with 100% Arabica from South America and South Asia, with a medium roast: in the cup, it offers a gentle bouquet, a subtly sweet and aromatic flavour and slightly liqueur-like notes. On Lavazza's A Modo Mio scale, from 1 to 13, Delizioso scores 8: more intense than Soave (5), Lungo Dolce (6) and Dek Cremoso (7), and milder than Passionale (11) and Intenso (13). As with all A Modo Mio capsules, Lavazza recommends preparing it as an espresso of 25 to 35 ml.

Frequently asked questions
Delizioso or Passionale: which should you choose?
Two 100% Arabica A Modo Mio coffees, at two intensity levels on the Lavazza scale:
- Delizioso (this product) — intensity 8/13, medium roast, gentle floral bouquet, slightly liqueur-like notes. Light, mild and aromatic.
- Passionale — intensity 11/13, dark roast, slightly caramelised flavour and chocolate notes. Balanced, full-bodied, mild.
Recommendation: Delizioso for a light, floral espresso, Passionale for more body.
Is Delizioso suitable for cappuccino?
Yes, for a mild cappuccino: Delizioso is a light, floral coffee that milk makes even milder. Recommendation: 1 Delizioso capsule + 100–120 ml of whole milk frothed at 65 °C. For a more full-bodied cappuccino, choose Intenso (13/13), which Lavazza describes as ideal with milk, or Passionale (11/13).
How many cups does a box of 16 capsules make?
Exactly 16 espresso — 1 capsule = 1 cup. Estimated supply duration by household consumption:
- Household drinking 2 cups/day — ~8 days. Typical consumption for a couple.
- High-consumption household drinking 4 cups/day — ~4 days. Typical family use for coffee + milk-based drinks.
For regular use, see the AMM multi-box packs with volume savings.
Which A Modo Mio machines is it compatible with?
All Lavazza A Modo Mio machines: Jolie, Jolie&Milk, Voicy, Deséa, Idola, Espria, Piccina, Tiny, Minù, as well as older models (LM910, LM950, LM3100). Not compatible with Lavazza Blue, Espresso Point, Firma, Nespresso, Dolce Gusto or illy Iperespresso — each Lavazza system has its own proprietary capsule shape.
Are Delizioso capsules recyclable?
Yes — 100% recyclable. AMM capsules are made of aluminium, a material that can be recycled indefinitely without losing quality. Recycling options:
- Lavazza collection bins in partner shops (dedicated collection points).
- Lavazza Terracycle programme (send capsules back through a prepaid collection service).
- Metal packaging recycling (yellow bin in most municipalities) after separating out the coffee grounds (compost or organic waste).
Best-before date and storage?
Best before 18–24 months from roasting (exact date printed on the box). Store at room temperature (15–25 °C), away from light and moisture. The aluminium provides an airtight seal — no loss of aroma as long as the capsule remains unpierced. Avoid storing in a humid kitchen or near an oven or hob.
