The Road to Taste
Explore the journey behind the distinct ILLY flavor. From the plantations to your cup, each step reveals the passion, science, and artistry that form the foundation of our unique 100% Arabica blend.
The coffee cherry goes through a careful process, transforming from fruit to bean. Harvesting is primarily done by hand, where only ripe cherries are selected to ensure the best quality. After being picked, the pulp is removed using either wet or dry methods, which reveals the green beans that are essential to our coffee.
The art of blending is illy’s secret. Before roasting, we combine nine varieties of Arabica to create a balance of body, aroma, and acidity. This precision guarantees the same consistent taste in every cup, no matter where you are in the world.
Roasting converts green coffee beans into the aromatic beverage we all know and love. By carefully controlling time and temperature, illy achieves the perfect balance between acidity and bitterness. Their three signature profiles—Classico, Intenso, and Forte—each showcase unique expressions of the same exquisite blend.
Freshness is crucial for flavor. Francesco Illy’s patented pressurization system replaces oxygen with nitrogen, preserving aroma for up to three years. Similar to fine wine, our coffee continues to mature over time, developing even richer notes within each can.
Innovation meets tradition. From Francesco Illy’s original Illetta espresso machine to the modern Iperespresso system, illy continues to refine the art of coffee preparation. Our iconic Matteo Thun cup is designed to enhance aroma, warmth, and beauty, ensuring that every sip delivers a complete sensory experience.

COFFEE
We have created two distinct intensities of flavor for our blend, each corresponding to a different roasting curve: the Classic Taste and the Intense Taste.
For those who enjoy soft and velvety flavors, we recommend the Classic Toasted. In contrast, if you prefer a rich and full-bodied taste, the Intense Toasted is perfect for you.
After opening, coffee stored at room temperature can maintain its freshness for up to six days.

For pod and ground coffee machines, detergent tablets must be used to remove residual grease from both the filter and the filter holder.
For Iperespresso machines, the descaler must be used. Both products can be purchased in our online shop.
SUSTAINABILITY
Our cans containing ground coffee are made of tinplate, a material that fully complies with current legislation on packaging recycling and is highly recyclable, since it can be easily separated from the rest of the metal waste using magnets present in waste treatment plants.
The ESE pods are certified compostable and can be conferred in the organic collection.
The material of which our Iperespresso capsules are made is polypropylene, which, thanks to its technological performance, resists the pressure generated by the capsule, necessary to guarantee an excellent result in the cup. Disposal of the capsule in different countries is linked to local waste management legislation. In fact, it is possible to recycle the plastic, separating it from the organic matter and transferring the two materials to the appropriate separate collection, or to waste-to-energy the entire capsule, as polypropylene develops those high temperatures that allow waste to be burned by developing electricity, without producing dioxins.
Our Iperespresso capsules are made of polypropylene, a material that resists the pressure generated by the capsule, which is necessary to guarantee an excellent result in the cup, thanks to its technological performance. Compostable plastics and other compostable materials do not currently have the technical characteristics to withstand high pressures without compromising the final quality of the coffee.
