Review of Illy Normale Espresso

Good Points
Nice can

Bad Points
Dry beans with a lack of full flavour.

General Comments
I am concerned that Illy are more worried about their image than reputation for good coffee. The latest batch I purchased (not cheap at £3.99 for 250g) was dry and lacked any real expresso punch. I must say that this comparison is made against Anderson's Coffee (Austin tx) Italian roast, which is the best I've ever had. Still, for the money I think Illy should be selecting better beans and producing a richer and moister blend.
