Starbucks Experience On The Go: Starbucks® Premium Iced Coffee Drinks now Available in Finland
Helsinki, FINLAND; 6 May 2011 – Today, Starbucks Corporation (Nasdaq: SBUX) and Arla Foods announced the national launch of Starbucks® premium ready-to-drink iced coffees, Starbucks® Iced Latte, Starbucks Doubleshot® Espresso and Milk and Starbucks® Bottled Frappuccino® drinks available on grocery shelves and in convenience stores throughout Finland. Starbucks® Iced Latte, Starbucks Doubleshot® Espresso and Milk, and Starbucks® Bottled Frappuccino® drinks are ready-to-drink coffee beverages that offer a blend of rich Starbucks® coffee with milk and delicious flavors to enjoy wherever you go.
The announcement demonstrates Starbucks commitment to bring authentic high-quality coffee and extend the Starbucks Experience to consumers in Finland. “We recognize the opportunity to transform the ready-to-drink coffee market in Finland based on the success we have had with consumers in North America, Asia, Europe and most recently Denmark,” said Rich DePencier, vice president of Global Consumer Products – Starbucks Coffee International. “The availability of Starbucks® ready-to-drink beverages demonstrates our commitment to innovating and enhancing the coffee experience for our customers wherever they may be,” DePencier added.
Inspired by Starbucks coffee buyers who travel the world looking for high-quality arabica coffee and designed for when consumers are out and about, the Starbucks® Iced Latte drinks are available in three delicious flavors: Seattle Latte, named after the birthplace of Starbucks; Aztlan® Mocha Latte (chocolate flavor) after the mythical birthplace of the Aztecs; and Qandi® Latte (caramel flavor) from the Greek island of Qandi. With these exotic locations depicted on the side of each cup, Starbucks® Iced Latte enables customers to momentarily escape from their day with a refreshing cup of chilled coffee. Cool, refreshing and a great pick-me-up at any time of day, Starbucks® Bottled Frappuccino® drinks offer a rich experience in every bottle, any place you choose to enjoy them. Chill them or pour them over ice and enjoy a sweet indulgence, available in several flavors: coffee, mocha or strawberry. In addition to the Starbucks® Iced Latte and Starbucks® Bottled Frappuccino® coffee drinks, Starbucks is introducing Starbucks Doubleshot® Espresso and Milk, a delicious canned blend of authentic Starbucks® espresso, lightly sweetened and mellowed with milk. The Starbucks® ready-to-drink portfolio is made with 100% Fairtrade certified coffee and sugar, as is the cocoa used in the Starbucks® Iced Latte Aztlan® Mocha Latte and the Starbucks® Bottled Frappuccino® Mocha variety.
