Founded
in 1933 by Francesco Illy, illycaffè produces and sells a unique single
blend of premium coffee globally. The instantly recognizable taste
found in every cup comes from a blend of 100% Arabica coffee from the
nine different regions of, South America, Central America, India and
Africa. Available in more than 140 countries in all five continents,
illy is served in over 50,000 public restaurants and establishments.
Illy's
enthusiasm and passion for coffee is why it sets a world benchmark for
excellence and culture in the coffee business. The values are expressed
in two cornerstones which are; passion for excellence and ethics.
Coffee is an art, coffee drinking and preparation is similar to that of
wine. Coffee has taste, aroma, touch, sight and even sound. You can
even 'age' coffee like a fine wine and with age it will evolve.
However, coffee is more than just an art, it is a science. Ever since
illycaffè was founded, it has also been a research laboratory, were
technological solutions for producing the best espresso have been
designed, constructed and patented. Such innovations that have
revolutionized the world of coffee are; coffee pressurization in cans
allowing coffee to be shipped to the far ends of the globe and the
second innovation being the illetta, the first coffee machine with
automatic water dosing and a jet of compressed air - predecessor of all
espresso machines. Illy are today still continuing on with their
never-ending quest for perfection by designing new and innovative
products and ideas.
With the arrival of Ernesto Illy, a
chemistry graduate, in the 50's, the family passion for science and
technology became strategy and method, with the birth of the internal
research laboratory and collaborations with scientific centre's and the
Università del Caffè.
It is this combination of art and science that sets illycaffè in a league of its own.
