illy E.S.E. (Easy Serve Espresso) espresso pods

illy pioneered convenient, single cup coffee pods in the 1970s with E.S.E., making high-quality espresso accessible to all, and still popular today.
Illy Caffe has developed the patented Easy-Serving-Espresso-System (short E.S.E.), which almost all Italian roasters have joined. All varieties of illy coffee are also available as an ESE pad. Both loose and individually flavor-wrapped. Most experts today would agree that illy was ahead of its time in the 1970s, finding a way to make high-quality espresso easier to prepare and enjoy. The E.S.E. (Easy Serving Espresso) pod format presaged today’s popular pre-packed, single cup coffee-making formats, and remains a popular choice for passionate coffee lovers at home. Each E.S.E. pod contains a perfectly dosed and tamped measure of the distinctive illy blend, enclosed in environmentally friendly filter paper designed to preserve critical flavor and aromas. An E.S.E. pod is simply placed inside a compatible machine, and within 30 seconds yields an espresso with the signature illy taste: strong, rich, yet smooth and balanced.
