## Description

The dream to offer the best coffee to the world, since 1933. Over the years, illy has perfected this process to obtain a coffee with a rich aromatic profile, balanced flavor and a one-of-a-kind aroma. To make our coffee, we select only the finest Arabica coffee plants, grown sustainably by our farmers in over 30 countries around the world. We cultivate long-lasting relationships with them based on shared values and personal growth. Because it is only by working together that we can achieve exceptional results. We select only the 1% of the finest Arabica coffee beans, thanks to many years of collaboration with growers who place maximum importance on quality and sustainability. Researching and experimenting with raw materials is a journey that never ends. After processing, the beans undergo a meticulous selection to ensure zero defects: even a single imperfect Arabica coffee bean can compromise the aroma of our blend. We preserve and enhance the aromas through our patented pressurized cans. Patented in 1934 by illy, pressurization is a preservation system in which the air in the tin is replaced by an inert gas at a pressure greater than that of the atmosphere. In this way, not only is the freshness of our coffee maintained, but its aroma is also enhanced. To obtain the best sustainable quality, illy sources the finest Arabica around the world, establishes a lasting relationship with the growers and nurtures a virtuous circle, generating well-being for consumers and socio-economic development for producers.illy aluminium capsules are designed specifically for use with Nespresso Original coffee machines, except models U, Umilk, Expert, Expert&Milk, Prodigio and Prodigio&Milk purchased after July 25, 2016.

Review: Great taste - Fits perfectly into my Nespresso machine. The taste amazing and much better than other brands, nothing beats the italian brands. I have already bought it multiple times.
Review: Excellent flavor in well-functioning Nespresso original style capsules - Unexpectedly excellent! The coffee tasted fresh and strong and smooth, and the capsule tech was spot-on. The last time I tried non-Nespresso pods was many years ago, and the coffee tasted was underwhelming and the capsules weren't very good. The reviews of Classico Espresso were quite positive, so I thought I'd try a classic roast instead of intense. I basically drink 2 mugs of double-shot latte every day. Delicious flavor from illy, hot or iced. Illy is top quality coffee, and this Classico Espresso classic roast is going to replace some of my Nespresso Roma orders.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why is it priced twice than that in EU for a pack of 10 capsules?**
A: I guess because it is imported from Italy and charge higher profit margins

**Q: Why is this called Lungo, since it has the same amount of coffee as regular capsules?**
A: Hello, thank you for your inquiry. The grind for the Lungo capsule is slightly coarser than the other capsules, which allows more flow through the capsule.  A standard shot of espresso is approximately 1.5 oz, whereas the lungo capsule brews approximately 3.7 oz.  If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact our customer care line 877-469-4559. Thank you!

**Q: Is this a low acid coffee?**
A: I think so
