About Illy Arabica Selection Coffees
Illy's signature blend for Italian espresso comes from 9 different origins around the world. For the first time, Illy has made available three components of this blend: three single-origin coffees, each alive with distinct characteristics borne of region-specific soil, altitude, rainfall, sun, and cultivation profiles. Aroma, taste, and body vary origin-to-origin, country-to-country, to a quite wonderful effect in the cup. Illy Arabica Selection is a path to explore Illy more deeply.
