What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The title names Classico, but the product description calls the coffee Intenso and describes a dark roast. The roast and flavour profile are therefore inconsistent in the listing. The listed dimensions also appear unusual for a 250g coffee can, so confirm the package dimensions if they matter to storage.
