A Christmas Menu Filled with Stories, Comfort, and Italian Inspiration

Classico (Medium Roast)
Illy’s signature blend, Classico, is a smooth and well-balanced medium roast made from 100% premium Arabica beans. Delicate notes of caramel, orange blossom, and jasmine unfold gently on the palate, followed by a clean, lingering sweetness. As the mildest intensity in the range, Classico is ideal for those who appreciate a refined, approachable espresso with natural elegance. It’s the kind of coffee that feels just as right for a slow morning as it does for a midday pause.

Intenso (Bold Roast)

For those who prefer a more powerful espresso, Intenso delivers depth and character without sacrificing balance. This bold roast reveals rich notes of toasted bread and finishes with smooth dark chocolate undertones. Full-bodied yet refined, Intenso is crafted for coffee lovers who enjoy a stronger, more satisfying cup—one that stands up beautifully on its own or with a splash of milk.

Classico Lungo

Designed for a longer coffee experience, Classico Lungo takes illy’s signature medium roast and stretches it into a more generous cup. The familiar aromatic balance of Classico remains intact, offering a smooth, flavourful espresso that stays consistent even when brewed longer. Ideal for those who enjoy lingering over their coffee without losing complexity or elegance.
