If you are looking for the "perfect blend" just know that Illy Coffee beans are put through the most stringent of taste tests before they are place for sale in the open market. The blend consists of a medium, dark and decaffeinated roast.

Illy coffee beans can be purchased in whole or ground beans for use in your espresso machine. The whole beans are packaged in 8.8 ounce cans and there are three roasts to choose from; medium, dark and decaffeinated. The medium roast is a very balanced roast while the dark is more intense. The decaffeinated roast is very similar to the medium roast as far as taste is concerned. The roasts are sent with different colors of lids on the cans to differentiate the blends.

Coffee has been found to have health benefits. There have been studies that show that limited amounts of coffee or green tea per day could help with aging and endometrial cancer in women.
