Illy Coffee

Listening to Windows Weekly last week I was reminded by Leo Laport on how good Illy coffee is.

When I use to visit Italy a lot I would always try and ensure that the coffee I drank when out and about was Illy.

Even today when looking for coffee, if I see an Illy sign, I make a beeline for that cafe over any other.

Today when we have coffeeshops on every corner, we sometimes forget when we pay £2 ($4) a cup that really we should expect not any old coffee in that cup, but a really good cup of coffee.

I keep meaning to buy some Illy for my espresso machine, but in the meantime I have been using Percol’s organic freetrade coffee instead, which I also enjoy.
