We've had whole coffee beans from tons of niche roasters, plus the usual variety of roasters such as Lavazza, Starbucks, Peet's, Seattle's Best, Stumptown, Carabou, etc. We've also had many of the highly ranked beans such as Jamaica Blue Mtn., Pure Kona and so forth. The consistency and taste of the Illy Intenso is what makes them our go-to coffee. Negative: I don't like how the lid doesn't screw on tightly, and the cans are easily damaged during shipping. But as for the coffee, it's awesome. Review: This packaged coffee competes well with freshly roasted - I know there are plenty of purists who believe that pre-packaged coffee can't measure up to that which is freshly roasted. I've been a coffee lover for years, but only recently started diving deeper into my understanding of roasts and preparation methods. About ten years ago I had a Francis Francis X1, and I used Illy pods with it. Fast forward to today, and I have a Rancilio Rocky grinder, a Bodum french press, a Techivorm Moccamaster, and a Rancilio Silvia espresso machine. I've enjoyed many beans, some fresh from local roasters and many from pre-packaged brands that you can find in the grocery store. It was only a few days ago that I thought about Illy and the espresso I'd had from their pods years ago. I looked all over town for Illy beans, but could only find pre-ground, so I ordered a case of medium, and a case of dark beans here on desertcart and I'm very impressed with both. So far, I've made espresso with the dark roast and drip with the medium roast, and both are outstanding. I'm also happy about this because I know that with Illy there is consistency. I can open another can, from another batch, years from now and be able to produce this same excellent shot of espresso or cup of coffee. I read some of Illy's marketing materials, and they point out that their coffee cans are first evacuated of air by vacuum and then pressurized with nitrogen. This process, they say, is patented and unique to them, allowing their coffee to retain freshness in the can for years. The idea is that rather than off-gassing, releasing oils and drying out, the inert gas under pressure keeps the oils in the beans and helps them build character as they age, they compare this to wine aging in the bottle. I'm not afraid to admit to my ignorance regarding the science behind these claims, but it sounds pretty good, right? If you haven't yet found the perfect cup, give these beans a shot. ## Features - Roasted with Precision: Our high quality, bold roast beans are intense and dynamic with captivating notes of cocoa and dried fruit with a deep, full-bodied finish. - 100% Arabica Beans: We hand select only the finest Arabica beans to blend various types of Arabica coffee sourced from the finest farms in South and Central America, India and Africa to ensure each cup of coffee maintains consistent, exceptional quality. - Whole Bean Coffee: Our whole beans are meant for coffee drinkers who prefer to grind their own coffee beans in order to prepare for any method including espresso or drip coffee, with any coffee or espresso machine. - Sealed for Freshness: illy’s patented pressurized packaging seals in the coffee’s precious aromas and extends the freshness for our whole bean coffee until you’re ready to grind, brew, pour and sip. - Certified B Corp: illy is committed to sustainable initiatives, as the first Italian coffee company awarded a B Corp Certification, we strive to create positive economic, social, and environmental value for everyone involved in the production chain. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07DNP3S4Z | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Allergen Information | Non-GMO | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,365 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #26 in Roasted Coffee Beans | | Brand | illy | | Brand Name | illy | | Caffeine Content Description | Caffeinated | | Caffeine Content Per Serving | 60 milligrams | | Certificate Type | Orthodox Union Kosher | | Coffee Blend Name | Intenso Bold Roast | | Coffee Roast Level | Dark Roast | | Coffee Type | Coffee Bean | | Container Type | Can | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 991 Reviews | | Diet Type | Gluten Free, Kosher, Plant Based, Vegan, Vegetarian | | Each Unit Count | 8.8 | | Flavor | Intenso Bold Roast | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08003753154459 | | Item Dimensions | 12.8 x 9.45 x 5.95 inches | | Item Form | Whole Bean | | Item Highlight | 100% Arabica, Premium Italian Coffee, Ideal for Espresso, Drip, Moka and French Press Brewing | | Item Package Weight | 2.54 kg | | Item Type Name | Whole Coffee Beans | | Item Volume | 250 ml | | Item Weight | 8.8 ounces | | Manufacturer | illy | | Number of Items | 6 | | Number of Pieces | 6 | | Package Information | Can | | Part Number | 8839 | | Roast Level | Dark Roast | | Size | 8.8 Ounce (Pack of 6) | | Special Ingredients | 100% Arabica Coffee | | Specialty | Free Trade Product, Kosher Certified, Shade Grown, Vegan, Vegetarian | | Sweetness Description | Moderately Sweet | | Unit Count | 52.8 Ounce | | Variety | Arabica | ## Product Details - **Brand:** illy - **Caffeine Content Description:** Caffeinated - **Flavor:** Intenso Bold Roast - **Item Form:** Whole Bean - **Roast Level:** Dark Roast ## Images ![illy Whole Bean Coffee, Intenso Bold Roast, 8.8oz, 6 Pack | 100% Arabica, Premium Italian Coffee, Ideal for Espresso, Drip, Moka and French Press Brewing - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71dIrv57hoL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Flavor** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can you the check labels on cartons?

I've never had a problem with my machine. Not only do these beans make great tasting espresso, they are not too oily. They keep my machine running smooth smoothly. ## Frequently Bought Together - illy Intenso Whole Bean Coffee, Dark Roast, Intense, Robust and Full Flavored With Notes of Deep Cocoa, 100% Arabica Coffee, No Preservatives, 8.8 Ounce (Pack of 6) - Lavazza Super Crema Whole Bean Coffee, Medium Espresso Roast, Arabica and Robusta Blend, 2.2 lb Bag, Package May Vary (Pack of 1) - Lavazza - L`Espresso Gran Crema Beans - 1 kg --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/80282181-illy-whole-bean-coffee-intenso-bold-roast-8-8oz-6](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/80282181-illy-whole-bean-coffee-intenso-bold-roast-8-8oz-6) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-09-10*
