## 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: My go to coffee - This coffee is such a quality and luxurious blend. The immediate aroma upon opening is going to be your first clue that you made the right decision by trying it out. The taste is full bodied and smooth. It’s a bit pricey although if you’re looking to sacrifice quality for savings perhaps you aren’t actually seeking an exceptional coffee. This is a staple in my home and I never allow myself to run out
Review: Authentic with heavenly flavor notes - Decided to buy this after trying it in Italy for the first time. It tastes just like how I remember! Soooo smooth, and it’s the first time I’ve truly been able to taste and understand the “notes” of the coffee. It has such a warm and unmistakable flavor while being perfect for a standard brew. I’ve been grinding these beans for plain espresso, lattes, and americanos (sorry Italy). Smells and tastes heavenly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fresh Quality and Affordable... Smooth
*by J***O on December 11, 2025*

Excellent Fresh Quality Whole Beans!! I specifically bought this to try the caramel, orange blossom and Jasmine notes in this coffee. I'm not specifically tasting any of those notes, possibly the caramel. One thing undeniably great is it's very smooth. It's a medium roast. Strong black coffee that would make a fantastic iced coffee. I will definitely buy this again. I like how it's sealed and the aroma releases once the lid comes off.I highly recommend buying for yourself or as gifts.
