ORRVILLE, OHIO — Café Bustelo, a J.M. Smucker Co. brand, is now offering ready-to-drink Café Bustelo espresso style iced coffee beverages, a first for the shelf-stable brand. The espresso style coffee company primarily has had its hand in such applications as ground, instant, decaf, K-Cup pods, espresso capsules, flavored coffee, origin blends and whole beans.
The collection will feature unsweetened, sweetened and vanilla flavors and will come in standalone 40-oz bottles.
“In recent years, we’ve started to see many of our coffee customers, both young and old, reach more and more for iced coffee,” said Eduardo S. Merino, senior brand manager of Café Bustelo. “But they still want that iconic flavor of Café Bustelo’s espresso style roasts that they love. This new product intentionally combines our nearly century-long mastery of coffee with a cold and refreshing taste for an iced coffee that is brand-new, but somehow feels completely familiar to our Café Bustelo family. ¡Salud!"
Consumers may find the collection now at Target and Walmart and Kroger with future restocks, according to the company.
