Philippe

I had a Nespresso machine in my office before Amici Caff?/Illy became my 
client. I got a X1 espresso machine and a few kg of coffee beans. I have 
given away the Nespresso machine as well as about 200 capsules of coffee, 
for free and without regrets. Nespresso is at least three floors below Illy. 
It's like comparing a a 1999 Rioja Conde de Valdemar (certainly a fine all 
day red wine), to a 1979 Ch?teau Mouton-Rothschild Grand Cru Class?.

The Amici (swiss illy) website I've recently created is in french, too, find 
some interesting articles about how illy is:

-handling the production of coffee*:
