Celebrate the launch of illycaffè's latest location in NU Sentral with its new Maritozzi Collection - these soft brioche buns come in savoury and sweet styles for a scrumptious treat!

Conveniently located by NU Sentral's monorail connection entrance, illycaffè offers a comfortable retreat from the bustle of Brickfields and KL Sentral, perfect for sipping illy's 100% Arabica coffee, crafted with the world's top 1% of the best Arabica coffee beans.

With more than 90 years of history,  illycaffè is now introducing its collection of creamy, dreamy maritozzi in Malaysia, available in mini sizes that start from RM7.90 only, beautifully buttery, fluffy and airy!

The Savoury Maritozzi collection comprises highlights like Beef Bresaola & Homemade Habanero Jam, triumphant with tender slices of beef bresaola, enhanced with the sweet heat of homemade habanero jam, layered with Italian cheese cream in the brioche bun.

For coffee, you can't go wrong with the Caffelatte, each sip spotlighting the nearly century-old legacy of illycaffè, from its Italian roots to its steady spread across the globe.

The Illycrema is gorgeous for all generations - creamy cold crystals of coffee, robust and refreshing, almost like espresso shots in the form of soft serves.

Greco all’Italiana is also ideal for hot, humid afternoons - fresh and cold, frothed milk topped with espresso freddo greco, essentially a double-layered iced latte.

The Affogato is for the young at heart - thick, dense ice cream poured over with a shot of illy espresso, with intriguing ice cream flavours such as pistachio and coconut to complement the classics of vanilla, hazelnut, double chocolate, and bacio (hazelnut with chocolate).

Tea is also worth trying - calm your spirit with the Tangerine Green Teafresher (RM16), a citrusy green tea with premium tangerine puree and fresh orange slices.
