Illycaffè is an Italian family company, founded in Trieste in 1933, with a clear commitment to offer the best coffee in the world. Produces Illy’s exclusive 100% Arabica blend made from 9 of the world’s finest Arabica selections.
Every day, more than 8 million cups of coffee are consumed in more than 140 countries around the world, in coffee shops, restaurants, hotels, offices and homes. To meet part of this demand, Illy has decided to expand its Cold Brew coffee portfolio with new ready-to-drink flavors, in addition to the new Illy Cold Brew Blade® tap system.
Specifically, it’s two new ready-to-drink Illy Cold Brew coffee flavors, Illy Cold Brew Cappuccino and Latte Macchiato, in a slim 8.45 oz can, convenient for on-the-go activity. These two new varieties, plus the original Illy Cold Brew Classico, cover a range of preferences for premium coffee lovers.
illy Cold Brew ready-to-drink cold brew coffee is made from 100% Arabica illy blend coffee cold brewed for 12 hours. The new illy Cold Brew Cappuccino and Latte Macchiato varieties combine milk with illy’s signature blend of nine single-origin coffees for a rich, smooth taste with no preservatives, colorings or added flavors.
“The expansion of our illy Cold Brew beverages positions illy to satisfy coffee lovers’ continued appetite for super-premium cold brews,” says Jack Edwards, president of illy caffè North America. “The illy Cold Brew portfolio represents illy’s latest innovations and delivers on our unwavering commitment to superior taste, quality and sustainability, recognized around the world,” he adds.
The new state-of-the-art dispensing system is a patented dispensing unit that creates a one-touch system that makes two different cold brews with the simple turn of the knob and the unique venturi spout. This system dispenses illy Cold Brew or illy Cold Brew Aria nitro style without the need for nitrogen tanks or an external source of compressed air.
In addition, the system uses a 4.5 liter soft pack of cold beer consisting of illy’s proprietary blend equipped with disposable dispensing tubes that eliminate the need to clean any internal elements of the machine, enhancing its food safety features and reducing the daily maintenance required of personnel.
