illy Espresso Fine Grind Dark Roast
In 1933, when Francesco Illy founded illycaffe in Trieste, Italy,his dream was to produce and sell the best coffee in the world. Aftercareful deliberation, he chose the Arabica bean, prized for its pronouncedaroma, its mild, well-rounded flavor, and its low caffeine content. However,producing a superior coffee was inconsequential if he couldn't find a way topreserve the freshness. With great persistence, Illy soon found a solution:containers in which nitrogen is substituted for air, making it possible tokeep roasted coffee fresh for up to 2 years! His pressurization method forpreserving coffee made history and is still an integral part of the illypackaging today. Inside this 8.8-oz. pressurized container are illy'sspecially selected Arabica beans that have been dark roasted and ground to aluxurious texture. Although it's been calibrated for espresso, you can alsouse it to make a perfectly brewed cup of coffee.
