A cup of illy espresso is a brief but intense experience that caresses the senses, awakens the spirit and
opens the mind. From the very first sip, illy's rich, fragrant aroma and distinctive, consistent taste provide
an authentic Italian coffee experience to be savored over and over again. illy produces one single blend
composed of nine types of 100% premium Arabica coffee--the very finest--and makes it available in
different formats and roasts. This choice guarantees consistent quality and distinguishes the illy blend,
ensuring it always has the same unique aroma and flavor. The green coffee beans are carefully selected
at source from the best plantations in Brazil, Central America, India and Africa and are then subjected
to 114 quality control steps before being sold. The coffee is packaged in the signature illy can which
provides a protective pressurized atmosphere to preserve its aroma for two years.
