## 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.

## Features

- DELICIOUS CLASSIC ROAST COFFEE - E.S.E. espresso pods contain a perfectly dosed and tamped measure of the distinctive illy blend, enclosed in filter paper designed to preserve notes of cocoa and dried fruit, without losing taste and freshness.
- COFFEE MAKER POD PREPARATION - Simply insert pods using the top lever to begin brewing and when you’re finished the same lever ejects the used pods into a removable collection drawer for easy clean up.
- NO-MESS, EASY SETUP - An E.S.E. pod coffee is simply placed inside compatible coffee machines, and within 30 seconds yields an espresso with the signature illy taste. The illy espresso coffee pods in filter paper are suitable for all E.S.E. coffee machines.
- WE BRING THE TASTE OF ITALY TO YOU - We’ve spent eight decades refining a singular, signature blend celebrated over the world as the pinnacle of what 100% arabica coffee can be.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone used this in a mug of boiling water? I would like good coffee while camping.**
A: We appreciate your question. Our ESE Pods are designed to be inserted into an E.S.E.-compatible espresso machine to provide a rich, robust 1-ounce espresso shot in less than 30 seconds. If inserted into a mug of boiling water, you will not get the same results.  Please call illy Customer Care at 877 455-9347 for more information.

**Q: I have a DeLonghi machine and it works with these pods, but the machine takes twice as long with the pods and working harder**
A: I don’t k ow what the question is but I had a DeLonghi machine as well when I used these. The best thing I did was get rid of that machine and buy a super automatic espresso machine.  It was almost $1000 but worth every penny.

**Q: What is expiration date? You can get that info on Ebay, not on Amazon and no return?? Pics please.**
A: I have purchased these pods for about two years, and it has 100% been my experience that I only purchase the Illy ESE pods that are sold and shipped by Amazon, and that when the price is at or close to full price, the dates reflect a fresher product.  I have also purchased these pods sold/shipped by Amazon with a sale price, and those pods were closer to the expiration date.  It should also be noted that as the Illy ESE pods are foil sealed, even if you were receiving boxes close to date, they are still amazingly fresh.  Note that there are two dates on the box, a production date, and a freshness date.

**Q: What Lilly  machine uses these?**
A: Espresso machines not necessarily illy I use them in my DeLonghi
