Product detailed description

Illy Moka Classico ground coffee 250g

"A global standard of coffee harmony and elegance, specially adapted for lovers of traditional home moka pots. An extraordinarily balanced, naturally sweet 100% selected Arabica with a captivating caramel-jasmine character, ground with absolute precision for perfect pressure, rich aroma and a thick cup without any signs of harsh bitterness."

Do you long for a morning coffee ritual that will bring the unmistakable sound of a bubbling moka pot and the aroma of a real Italian café into your kitchen? Ground coffee from the Classico series (traditional medium roast – Tostato Classico) from the globally iconic illy roaster from Trieste is tailor-made in this edition for preparation in home Moka coffee makers (bialetas). This exclusive, time-tested blend is made exclusively from nine of the best varieties of 100% high-altitude Arabica in the world. Compared to the espresso version, the Moka variant is characterized by a specific, slightly coarser grinding texture. It is scientifically calibrated to exactly match the water pressure in the moka pot. As a result, the coffee does not flow too quickly, but it also does not clog the filter, which prevents a burnt or bitter taste and creates a velvety full cup.

The luxurious 250g package in an iconic metal can is the perfect choice for demanding households, lovers of traditional preparation and stylish offices. 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 can. This is 100% guaranteed that the coffee does not lose its strength, does not air out and retains its freshly roasted barista qualities for an unusually long time.

☕ Flavor profile: Sweet caramel, blooming jasmine, milk chocolate and full mocha body

Illy Moka Classico stands out with its extraordinarily noble, smooth 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, adding a signature sparkle and luxurious complexity to the traditional moka pot brew.

• Dried fruit and honey: The warm, clean aftertaste reveals a subtle, elegant trace of sweet dried fruit and honey, which lingers long and pleasantly on the palate.

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

The premium illy Moka blend delivers absolutely unbeatable results in all types of traditional aluminum and stainless steel moka pots (Bialetti and others) designed for gas, electric and induction hobs. However, thanks to its specific grinding coarseness, it is also perfect for preparation in a French Press or in electric drippers, if you prefer a slightly fuller body of the drink.

It is a fantastic choice for those who love the ritual of a morning cup of coffee with a more intense character and fuller body, but at the same time require the naturally sweet and elegant flavour profile of 100% Arabica without the harsh, astringent bitterness of Robusta. The resulting beverage is also, thanks to its strength, an absolutely stunning and stable base for homemade milk specialties such as a morning Caffè Latte or a creamy Cappuccino.
