Why the hype? Let’s break it down
So, what makes these iced coffees such a big deal? Is it the silky smooth texture that’s almost too good to be true? Or maybe it’s the fact that they’re crafted with our fully traceable, speciality-grade beans sourced directly from farmers – you know, the good stuff. It’s like the coffee gods themselves blessed these cans.
And it’s not just us saying it. The judges couldn’t get enough of that bold, rich flavour paired with the perfectly balanced sweetness. Honestly, it’s the kind of coffee that makes you rethink your life choices – like why you’ve been settling for bland, watered-down iced coffee when this exists.
World Coffee Innovation shines a spotlight on the coffee industry, these Awards allow cutting-edge advancements that often go unnoticed to gain the recognition they deserve. Think revolutionary machines, sustainable packaging, new-fangled flavourings or a spin on an old classic!
The Great British Food Awards celebrates the finest British produce, judged by some of the most acclaimed chefs, food critics and influencers in the country, with each product undergoing a rigorous judging process before we crown the winners.
