Illy India 250 g

Illy India belongs to the exclusive Arabica Selection range, which focuses on single-origin 100 % Arabica coffee from India, specifically the Karnataka region, known for growing coffee in the shade. Illy selects only the highest quality beans: reportedly only 1 % of the best Arabica beans.

The individual origins are roasted separately, with precisely set temperature and time, to best bring out the typical aromatic notes and taste of India. After processing, the coffee is packaged in Trieste, Italy, in pressurized cans filled with inert gas, which keeps it fresh for up to 24 months.

Illy India stands out for its distinctive, full body with intense notes of black pepper and extra dark chocolate, which underscore the character of the spice country. In addition, subtle hints of vanilla, cardamom and citrus fruits appear in the aroma, adding a complex and spicy flavor profile. The acidity is low and very well balanced, allowing for a fuller and more robust enjoyment of each cup.

Illy India is developed primarily for espresso, but also works well in moka pots or filtered preparations, where the darker roast allows the flavor potential to develop well. Users often appreciate its consistency - stable flavor and aroma even with repeated use, provided the coffee is stored in a cool, dry place away from light.
