Illy Arabica Selection Brasile Cerrado Mineiro Coffee beans 250 g

"A monovarietal gem born in the heart of Brazil. A medium-roasted, single-species 100% Arabica with sustainability certification that enchants with its intense chocolate body and velvety softness."

Do you long for a coffee experience that will transport you to the sun-drenched plantations of the South American continent with just one sip? Illy Arabica Selection Brasile Cerrado Mineiro is an exclusive single-origin jewel from the premium line of artisan coffees from the legendary family roaster from Trieste, founded in 1933. This coffee is composed exclusively of 100% selected Arabica beans from the prestigious and strictly protected Cerrado Mineiro region in the state of Minas Gerais, which is famous for its specific microclimatic conditions. The unique calibrated roasting developed specifically for this edition allows the beans to stand out in their natural fullness, completely suppresses acidity and opens up a deep, warm profile. In addition, the iconic 250g metal packaging guarantees absolute freshness and perfect condition of the beans as when they left the roasting drum.

☕ Flavor profile: Intense dark chocolate, roasted nuts and sweet caramel

Illy Brasile stands out with its exceptionally full, enveloping body, velvety texture on the palate and a rich palette of warm tones without any trace of aggressive bitterness or acidity:

• Dense dark chocolate: The dominant flavor axis that defines the overall character of the coffee and leaves behind an unusually clean, long-lasting and luxurious chocolate aftertaste.

• Roasted hazelnuts and toast: The intense aroma and full body elegantly develop noble notes of roasted nuts and freshly baked sweet pastries.

• Rich syrupy consistency: Thanks to the specific origin of the grains and the precise drying process in the Brazilian sun, the resulting drink has a pleasantly thick texture and a compact hazelnut crema.

💡 Who is it ideal for and what kind of preparation?

The illy Brasile blend achieves absolutely excellent barista results in both home lever and automatic coffee machines, and also perfectly develops its chocolate body when prepared in a traditional moka pot or French press. It is the ideal choice for those looking for a refined coffee without fruity acidity, who appreciate a full and sweet chocolate profile and demand top quality for their morning espresso or midday ritual.

Thanks to its distinctive chocolate-nutty base and natural sweetness, this coffee is an absolutely stunning partner for milk specialties (cappuccino, latte macchiato, flat white). It can easily permeate the sweetness of milk foam, with which it harmoniously combines to create an unusually velvety, silky drink with a clearly readable and deep flavor.

🔒 Revolutionary freshness preservation system (Pressurization): Illy coffee is packed in patented metal cans using the pressurization method - the air in the container is replaced by an inert gas under higher pressure. This process literally locks the precious coffee oils inside the beans and prevents any oxidation. After opening the can, you will feel an explosive, intoxicating aroma, as if the coffee had been roasted only a few minutes ago. The can can be tightly closed with a plastic lid after each use and the beans can be conveniently stored in it.
