"A complete barista arsenal bringing the global standard of coffee harmony and elegance directly to your business or office. A complete carton of 12 pieces of an exclusive blend of 100% selected Arabica with a silky smooth body, captivating caramel aroma and pressure packaging for an absolute guarantee of freshness in every single dose."

Are you looking for coffee for your catering business, corporate office or demanding home supply that offers absolutely constant top quality, a prestigious name and a taste profile that will win the heart of every lover of traditional Italian espresso? The advantageous package containing 12 pieces of 250g metal cans of ground coffee from the Classico series from the globally iconic illy roaster from Trieste represents an uncompromising solution for the most demanding. This time-tested, exclusive blend is made exclusively from nine of the best varieties of 100% high-altitude Arabica in the world, which are hand-picked and selected. The beans undergo a gentle medium roasting, which perfectly develops the natural sweetness, suppresses harsh bitterness and creates a noble, velvety smooth cup with a long-lasting bittersweet aftertaste.

By purchasing the entire carton (12 × 250g), you will not only get a more affordable package, but above all the assurance of perfect freshness. The unique patented system of packaging under pressure (pressurization) in an inert atmosphere reliably locks all volatile aromatic substances and precious essential oils inside the cells of the coffee beans. Instead of opening one large kilogram package, which loses its properties after a few days, you gradually open smaller 250g cans, thus guaranteeing your customers or colleagues a 100% barista experience until the last cup.

☕ Flavor profile: Sweet caramel, blooming jasmine, milk chocolate and velvety crema

Illy Espresso Classico stands out with its exceptionally noble, silky-light texture, complex aroma with a captivating hint of fresh flowers and a perfectly integrated palette of subtle tones:

• Sweet caramel and milk chocolate: The main flavor axis enchants with delicious, warm notes of soft caramel and milk chocolate, which give the coffee a stable, elegant and highly balanced base.

• Blooming Jasmine and Flowers: The aroma and subtle undertones on the palate reveal a refined, clean trail of jasmine and orange blossom, giving the drink its signature sparkle and luxurious complexity.

• Dried Fruit: A warm, clean aftertaste reveals a subtle, elegant trace of sweet dried fruit and honey.

• Velvety soft and compact foam (crema): As a 100% selected Arabica, this blend creates a beautifully soft, hazelnut-like foam with an elastic structure thanks to its masterful roasting style and precise grinding, which reliably locks the rich aroma inside the cup.

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

The premium illy Espresso blend delivers absolutely excellent and consistent results in both home and professional lever coffee machines, traditional moka pots (bialet), drippers and French presses. It is a fantastic choice for preparing morning and all-day premium espresso for those who love smoother, more complex and naturally sweeter coffee profiles with an optimal dose of caffeine. Given its noble character, you can prepare an absolutely stunning Lungo or Americano from it.

It is also perfect as a luxurious base for more delicate milk specialties (cappuccino, latte macchiato, flat white). With the sweetness of whipped milk, its chocolate-caramel tones combine in extraordinary harmony, creating a velvety drink in which the delicate undertones of jasmine and fine cocoa fully develop.

Storage and logistics tip: Cardboard packaging (12 pcs) is ideal for easy storage in the back of a café, restaurant, hotel or company kitchen. The coffee cans themselves are airtight and, thanks to the pressure inside, have an extremely long shelf life without loss of quality. After opening a specific can, we recommend tightening the lid tightly after each use and storing the container in a dry, cool and dark place (in professional use, away from the heat of the coffee machine or grinder). Empty metal cans are 100% environmentally recyclable.
