The Classico medium roast is smooth, mellow, and has just enough body to satisfy without ever tipping into bitterness. It’s exactly the kind of coffee I can drink throughout the day—stronger in the morning, gentler in the afternoon, all just by tweaking the grind. The aroma when opening the tin is heavenly—that warm, rich, slightly floral scent instantly upgrades your kitchen into a mini Italian café. I use this mostly in a filter coffee machine, and the result is always a clean, consistent cup with subtle notes of caramel and citrus, just as the label promises. Speaking of the tin—it’s well-sealed, keeping the beans fresh for longer, though the initial opening can catch you out. It’s a pressurised pop-top, and if you’re not careful, you might end up with a mini coffee explosion. My tip: open slowly, on a flat surface, and savour that first burst of aroma. While some might say it’s a little pricey, I find it offers great value considering the quality, freshness, and flavour—plus, it’s consistently good across multiple brews and machines. Pros: ✅ Smooth, mild flavour – never bitter ✅ Fresh, rich aroma – especially on first open ✅ Grind-to-taste flexibility – ideal for adjusting strength ✅ Well-sealed tin – keeps beans fresh ✅ Sustainably sourced & ethically produced Cons: ❌ Pressurised tin can pop on first open – handle with care! ❌ Premium price point – but worth it for quality Final Thoughts: If you're looking to level up your home coffee routine, these illy Classico beans are a solid, reliable, and delicious choice. Perfect for everyday brewing and versatile enough to suit any time of day. Would I buy again? Already have.

I didn't see "2 tins" when I bought it. **Q: What grind settings do you use for this coffee? I have wasted a whole tin trying to dial it in. I cannot find any good settings. I'm using a sage.** A: Well, depends. If you are making an espresso, which this bean is for, you want a fine grind usually. But if you want to use it in a french press, then one wants a course grind. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smooth Operator – Mild, Fresh and Great for All-Day Brewing *by D***E on 24 March 2025* Having switched from illy’s pre-ground version to these whole beans, I’m now completely sold.
