## Description

The dream to offer the best coffee to the world, since 1933. Over the years, illy has perfected this process to obtain a coffee with a rich aromatic profile, balanced flavor and a one-of-a-kind aroma. To make our coffee, we select only the finest Arabica coffee plants, grown sustainably by our farmers in over 30 countries around the world. We cultivate long-lasting relationships with them based on shared values and personal growth. Because it is only by working together that we can achieve exceptional results.We select only the 1% of the finest Arabica coffee beans, thanks to many years of collaboration with growers who place maximum importance on quality and sustainability. Researching and experimenting with raw materials is a journey that never ends. After processing, the beans undergo a meticulous selection to ensure zero defects: even a single imperfect Arabica coffee bean can compromise the aroma of our blend. We preserve and enhance the aromas through our patented pressurized cans. Patented in 1934 by illy, pressurization is a preservation system in which the air in the tin is replaced by an inert gas at a pressure greater than that of the atmosphere. In this way, not only is the freshness of our coffee maintained, but its aroma is also enhanced. To obtain the best sustainable quality, illy sources the finest Arabica around the world, establishes a lasting relationship with the growers and nurtures a virtuous circle, generating well-being for consumers and socio-economic development for producers.

Review: I’ve been using illy Classico whole bean coffee every day with my Breville 881 Touch Impress, and I’m genuinely impressed by how consistently excellent the results are. The beans grind evenly in my machine, and the crema on my lattes comes out rich and velvety every time. The medium roast is perfectly balanced, I can taste the subtle caramel sweetness upfront, followed by the delicate floral hints of orange blossom and jasmine. It’s complex but never overwhelming, making each cup feel like a café-quality experience right at home. I appreciate that these are 100% Arabica and contain no preservatives. The aroma when grinding the beans fills the kitchen, which makes my morning routine feel extra special. I usually adjust the grind size and tamping pressure on my 881 to get the best extraction, and the flavor is always consistent, smooth, slightly sweet, and never bitter. The packaging is sturdy and keeps the beans fresh for longer, which is perfect because I like to stock up during desertcart deals. While I wish the price was slightly lower, the quality more than makes up for it. These beans have become my go-to for lattes, cappuccinos, and even a simple black espresso shot. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, aromatic coffee that works beautifully with home espresso machines.
Review: Illy is easily the best espresso I’ve ever had. I was searching for the one bean for such a long time, trying so many disappointing cups of espresso throughout my journey. I’ve had some that were good, but I just knew it wasn’t the one. The first time I tried illy intenso, the very first espresso I made, I KNEW it was the one I’ve been searching for all this time! Since that moment I have not purchased another brand of bean, nor do I ever plan to. Illy is truly my favorite espresso and I honestly have no desire to even try any others, it’s exactly what I want. The intenso is my favorite(I like darker roasts) and surprisingly, like many other dark roasts, it’s not bitter at all. Tho Classico is also good for a lighter roast. It’s a bit pricey, but worth every cent. With that said I’m not thrilled with the recent prices they’ve been selling this coffee for on here lately. It used to be $10-$11 for a can, now they’ve raised to nearly $17 on here. Buying this larger pack is cheaper, equaling to about $14.50 a can, but still higher than usual. There is also no way to reseal the bag. Should keep beans in fridge to fresh longer once opened per illy’s website

Illy coffee is my favorite and I use the whole beans in my superautomatic espresso machine. The medium roast is perfect, mild taste but strong coffee flavor and the beans are not oily so they don't gum up the grinder. Also, these larger bags are a big upgrade over the cans. I like the aesthetic of the cans, but the bags are much easier to store and more economical.
