Illy Whole Bean Coffee, Decaffeinated - Medium Roast - Mild & Balanced - 100% Arabica - Whole Beans - Pressurized Packaging Sealed for Freshness - 8.8oz can (Pack of 6)

We have a Breville Coffee maker and spent a lot of time and money finding the “perfect” coffee bean to use with it. We considered things like taste, oiliness and price. Neither my husband or myself like strong coffee, so we tended to stay away from espresso beans. This coffee is just the right blend of mildness/flavor. Not too strong, not too weak. It also doesn’t leave an oily residue in our coffee grinder, which is so nice! The coffee is a little pricey but certainly won’t break the bank. And we prefer this coffee to most coffee-shop, so we save a ton of money by making our coffee at home! We love this coffee so much, we have it on subscription so we never have to go without.

Spectacular coffee. Have stopped drinking other brands !The arome is lovely. Mostly drink the decaf. Which is also wonderful.

This coffee reminds me of those boutique coffee beans that have a bit of a citric taste, almost savory taste to it. It's not my choice for everyday coffee but I enjoy having it around for when I want a different taste.

I generally prefer a dark roast for my "regular" coffee, but a medium roast is usually recommended for Turkish coffee. I didn't much like the pre-ground Turkish coffees I'd found, and since I have a hand grinder that will do the ultra-fine grind you need for Turkish, I decided to try an 8 oz package of the Illy.It works very well for that purpose, and I probably will not buy the pre-ground Turkish coffees again; this tastes much better. It's a bit expensive per ounce, but since I'll only be using a couple of teaspoons at a time, the 8 oz pack should last for a while.I also tried making my regular morning coffee with this, grinding it a little less fine and using a Moka Pot, adding extra water afterward for an "Americano". It was fine that way too, better than other medium roasts I've had, but I think I'll stick with dark roasts for everything except Turkish coffee.

I tried the classico it tastes good but not very strong.If you like strong coffee then go for the intenso, it’s strong and rich

I purchased these for when I make an espresso martini. They taste great ( yes, I chew on them). I don't drink coffee so I can't attest to how good they are for that purpose.

Excellent!! ...For flavor and robust body. Perfect screw on metal container to keep it fresh. I only started drinking coffee in my senior years and I tried several brands. Fortunately after viewing a documentary on the History Channel, on the story of their product, I thought I'd give it a try and boy O' boy was I happy that I did. As I said in the beginning...Excellent!!

I’m not dropping stars because it’s not a reflection of the product itself, but I want to offer this heads up for other buyers. Amazon shipped three cans in a padded envelope and they all arrived dented. Two are actually missing the lids. If this had been a gift for someone, I would have returned them. If you care about the condition of the can, you might want to buy this from a local source.As for the coffee beans, Illy is a reputable brand with consistently high quality.
