Illy Dark Intenso Arabica Coffee beans 250 g

“The absolute pinnacle of intensive Italian roasting. A robust, full-bodied and captivating blend with a dominant share of select Arabica for the most demanding coffee gourmets and lovers of deep, strong flavour.”

Do you crave a cup of coffee that combines the famous Northern Italian sense of perfection with extraordinary strength, dark character and rich smoky aroma? Illy Dark Intenso (formerly known as Intenso / Dark Roast) represents the most intense face that this famous Trieste roaster has to offer. This exclusive blend is made from nine of the highest quality 100% Arabica beans, which have undergone a precise dark roasting process. The result is a perfectly balanced, extraordinarily full cup with a robust body, which nevertheless retains the typical finesse and nobility of the illy brand.

The classic 250g package in an iconic metal can is the ideal choice for premium households, demanding offices or lovers of an uncompromising morning ritual who require coffee with a strong character and long-lasting energy.

Flavor profile: Cocoa, dark chocolate and notes of toasted bread Illy Dark Intenso stands out with its dense texture, penetrating aroma and wonderfully rounded palette of deep tones completely free of unpleasant acidity:

• Cocoa and dark chocolate: The main flavor line enchants with warm, intense tones of premium dark cocoa and high-percentage dark chocolate.

• Toasted bread and caramel: The body of the coffee clearly reveals the pleasant aroma of freshly baked bread crust with a slight undertone of dark caramelized sugar.

• Minimized acidity: Thanks to a longer and more intense roasting process, fruity acidity is suppressed to an absolute minimum, allowing full power and an infinitely long, pure chocolate aftertaste to shine through.
