Wow! Finally, a company/brand that gets it. Some of us don’t feel like making espresso or coffee in the morning. We get tired of driving to our nearest coffee shop. We don’t want to buy Espresso Doubleshots from the grocery because, even the light version has calories and fat (plus disgusting Sucralose – Splenda). “illy issimo Caffe – No sugar” is exactly what is says it is. a 6.8 oz can of brewed Espresso with no artificial sweetners, no milk, no cream, nothing. It has 15 calories per can…thats because Coffee beans do have oil on them and contain some calories. Each can has around 150mg Caffiene (I cannot recall). That is 150 mg in 6.8 oz of espresso. Basically, just over the caffiene amount of a dopio (double) espresso from a major coffee chain. I can add my own non-fat milk and be set, add some cold water and ice if I want…even add some PureVia or Truvia (Stevia Type Zero Calorie Sweetener) which is all natural and much better for you (with no after taste). I can add whatever I want. I basically can put into my body, exactly what I want to; let’s not forget the convenience factor of grabbing a can, as you run out the door, and downing it in the car. Best thing I’ve ever found on Amazon!!! Life is now complete…I don’t even have to leave the house to get good iced espresso. By the way…the drink I normally get at “The Bux” is about $3.45. A 12-pack on here is $25.00 currently. If I drink 1 a day, for 36 days – That would cost $75.00. If I go to my favorite coffee house for 36 days – It would cost around $125.00. I don’t think there is a question as to cheaper, more convenient, and better.

If you love espresso, but are always on the run, this is a great product. I am a huge coffee drinker, and this, plus the other version with low fat milk, and a little sugar, are both great. I love the option to grab this, black and unsweetened, or the if in the mood, the lightly sweetened version, when running around with no time to brew my own. The quality is very high, and I gave this 4 stars, instead of 5, only because it is very expensive. If the high price is offset by the convenience, as it is for me, give this, or actually any of the illy coffees a try, they are all great. Also, travels with you very easily, as a few of the 6.8 ounce size cans can go in a briefcase, or any bag with ease.

I really like this drink. Especially when it is really chilled. I really enjoy it for several reasons. The first is that is taste like mocha coffee – not chocolate milk someone served in a coffee cup! It has just the right blend of coffee and mocha. The other thing I really like about this drink is that it is only 100 calories! The ingredients list is: Coffee (water, coffee) Lowfat milk Sugar Cocoa powder cellulose gel potassium bicarbonate potassium citrate cellulose gum carrageenan
So, while it isn’t the most “pure” ingredient list – nothing makes me want to run and hide. I like this drink so much I have it on my subscribe and save for monthly delivery!
