Do you want to drink top-quality espresso in your home or office, which bears the name of a world-class quality standard and is completely devoid of harsh, astringent bitterness? The compact package containing a 125g metal can of ground coffee from the Espresso Classico series (traditional medium roast – Tostato Classico) from the globally iconic illy roaster from Trieste is the perfect choice for discerning coffee connoisseurs. This exclusive blend is made exclusively from nine of the best varieties of 100% high-altitude Arabica in the world. Compared to the filter or moka pot variants, this Espresso version is characterized by a specific, precisely fine grinding texture. It is scientifically calibrated to exactly match the optimal water pressure in lever coffee machines. As a result, the coffee does not flow too quickly, is perfectly extracted and creates a velvety smooth drink with a thick, elastic crema in the cup.

By purchasing this practical 125g package, you will get the ideal portion of coffee, which you can be sure to consume at its absolute peak of taste. 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 large packages, which irreversibly lose their properties after time in the air, you are betting on safety with this compact can. You guarantee yourself, your visitors or colleagues an absolutely perfect, fresh barista experience and full aroma every time you open it.
