We put the “Cru” in Crucial
In coffee lingo, cru refers to the particular beans selected for the blend. So when you drink our coffee you can be sure that you’re drinking only the finest. Furthermore, through our delicate tasting and re-tasting process we ensure that our beans maintain their original characteristics – the reason we chose them in the first place. In fact, we test them up to eight times before they make the cut to be a part of the illy brand.
Coffee, the illy Way: Delicious, distinct and consistent.
Coffee of the highest order, coffee that delights: this is illy’s mission, passion and obsession. A simple idea created through complex means: eight decades of experience; unmatched knowledge of coffee biology and chemistry; unrivalled skill at roasting; the pioneering of innovative, enabling technologies; and a family’s entrepreneurial passion.
There is a taste, a feel, an aroma that is all illy’s own. Velvety, immediately sweet, delicately balancing floral and fruity notes with caramel, toast and chocolate, naturally fragrant with aromas of almond and honey. You just might hold the sugar, for the very first time.
This is balance that comes only from a blend: the singular illy blend of nine highest-order Arabica beans, selected and directly purchased by illy from farms spanning four continents. Each individual bean contributing to a greater whole, for the pleasure of those who appreciate all that coffee can and should be.
In the cup, the illy blend becomes a symphony: rich, full, multi-faceted, yet subtle, comprised of immensely talented soloists, each coaxed to their finest performance under the hand of an expert conductor.

Thinking About Coffee Inside Out
Coffee is something to overcome all senses, so by packaging illy coffee in cans along with inert nitrogen under pressure, we are able to trap essential aromas and protect them for over a year.
Next time you buy and open a can of illy, breath in deep the alluring aroma and listen for the signature “whoosh”. That’s the sound of fresh coffee at its freshest.
