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.

My partner is a coffee drinker. He loved the Classico Medium ground coffee I previously bought & said it was the best coffee he's ever tasted! It also had a very delicious aroma. So, I decided to try this Mocha flavor. Happy Valentine's!

I love this coffee so much! I lived in Italy for a few years and most of the coffee shops served Illy. It is strong and smooth, but not bitter. I love the fact that the cans come pressurized so I know it’s always fresh!

Delicious, strong espresso. This blend has a great flavor, no bitterness, and does perfect in both sweeter and more plain drinks. I feel that the price is also fair, but I’m also the only one in my house that drinks coffee so it does last a good while for me. I will continue to buy and am interested to see if this brand has any other options out there.

Review: An Exceptional Espresso ExperienceIf you’re a true coffee lover, you know the difference between a good espresso and one that takes your taste buds on a journey. This espresso falls firmly into the latter category. From the very first sip, I was captivated by its rich aroma—a tantalizing prelude to what was about to unfold.The flavor profile is a masterclass in balance. There’s a robust, velvety body with notes of dark chocolate and a hint of caramel sweetness, complemented by a subtle citrusy brightness. The crema on top is perfectly golden and thick, adding a luxurious texture that enhances every sip.What truly stands out is the aftertaste—smooth and lingering, with a pleasant nutty undertone that makes you want to savor each moment. Whether enjoyed as a straight shot or the foundation of a latte or cappuccino, this espresso consistently delivers excellence.

The coffee is outstanding for taste. My only complaint is that the cans arrived without the screw-on cap. What gives?! It would be a nice gesture to check and ensure that the product is sent to the consumer without a missing top.Follow-up~~~My latest order arrived with tops on all 3 cans, however 2 of the cans are badly dented. On a positive note, illy is the most quality brand of coffee I can make at home. The product is consistent from dented can to dented can.

Be careful when you buy this product it seems like a great price if you compare it to the ones you buy in the grocery store but the ones in the grocery stores are 250 mL this one’s only 125 I’ve never seen this before so if you do the math it’s not a good deal at all. And also I like a nice set up for my Espresso machine could not display because the can was dented on the front and the back

Lo hago servir para rellenar una capsula recargable Dolce Gusto y el cafè queda perfecto, con espuma. Lo mejor es su sabor.Con la ingesta de mas de un cafe convencional, personalmente me suelen produir sensacion de taquicardia. Con este cafe no me pasa, y no es que sea un cafè demasiado suave sinó que su gusto es intenso.
