Illy Classico + Perléo Forte Coffee Beans (2 x 250g + 250g)
Reference price:
€ 21,00- Want to try new coffee but are scared of not liking what you get? Discover this Illy bundle of 2 x 250g Classico with an almost free bag of Perléo Forte included!
Description
Enjoy 2 x 250g of Illy Classico paired with 250g of Perléo Forte, our bold and chocolatey own-brand blend.
Created for side-by-side tasting, this bundle lets you discover a similar flavour profile at a better everyday price.
What’s Inside the Bundle
A refined, medium roast blend known for its balance and elegance. Expect a smooth body with notes of caramel, milk chocolate and delicate florals, supported by a gentle bitterness and a clean, lingering finish. It’s a classic for a reason, easy to love and consistently satisfying.
Our own bold and generous blend, developed for those who enjoy depth and intensity without sacrificing balance. You’ll find rich cocoa notes, toasted nuts and a full bodied texture, with a slightly more pronounced roast character that works beautifully in espresso and milk based drinks.
Why We Created This Bundle
Illy Classico and Perléo Forte share very similar taste characteristics: a comforting chocolate base, a rounded body and a profile that performs perfectly as espresso. Both deliver that familiar café style cup with great crema and satisfying depth.
The difference? Perléo Forte offers comparable flavour and structure at a more accessible price point. This bundle is designed to let you taste them side by side and decide for yourself which one earns a permanent spot in your grinder.
Try. Compare. Decide.
Pull the same espresso with both coffees. Taste them black. Try them in a cappuccino or flat white. Pay attention to the body, the crema, the chocolate notes and the finish.
Many customers discover that Perléo Forte delivers everything they enjoy in Illy Classico, sometimes with a little more intensity, while being better suited to everyday brewing.
Perfect For
Thanks to their shared profile and versatility, both coffees work beautifully in espresso machines, bean to cup machines and moka pots, and they shine in cappuccinos, lattes and flat whites. If you love smooth, chocolate forward espresso with a balanced finish, this bundle is the perfect way to explore something new without stepping outside your comfort zone.

Illy Caffè was founded in Trieste, by Francesco Illy, in 1933. Today, the company is in its third generation of family ownership.

The type of roast will affect the balance of flavours (bitterness, acidity, sweetness, etc.) and reveal the aromas of the terroir to a greater or lesser extent.
The more the coffee is roasted the more its colour will change (from light to dark). The darker the roast, the more the aromatic notes are lost in favour of the roasting notes.
All our coffees have been placed in a colorimeter by our experts in order to compare the roast intensity.
The aromatic groups describe the tasting notes of your cup (hazelnut, chocolate, peach, white flowers, etc.).
If you don't know what your coffee profile is yet, we advise you to start with the most appreciated aromatic groups: rich & sweet or woody.
Please Note: this is not a flavoured coffee but aromatic notes noticed upon tasting.
The dominant aromatic group represents the most perceptible notes and the secondary group, the more subtle notes present in the cup.
Traditional Coffees (classic and superior) are the most common in the various distribution channels.
Specialty Coffees (rated 80-100) are among the best coffees in the world and represent less than 10% of world production. These are flawless coffees that offer unique tasting notes from one terroir (or even plot) to another.
Attributed by “Q Graders”, a coffee's /100 score is determined by the quality of the beans and the result in the cup. It is advisable to progressively move towards coffees with higher scores.
