We think this is tee-rrific! Congrats on this hole-in-one program Joe Coffee Company & Jonathan Rubinstein

Congrats to Caffe Vita on their launch of Vita Cold Shot, the first coffee brand to launch a Genuine Coldstretto® Extraction on the West Coast and the first in the nation to offer it online for direct-to-consumer purchasing.

A year ago today, we completed the very first production of Coldstretto® for our partner Joe Coffee Company. It took years of innovation, experimentation, and craft to create the only coffee concentrate that delivers the true flavor of espresso as a packaged product. Coldstretto represents a transformative moment for cold espresso beverages, changing the way they’re crafted, discovered, shared and enjoyed everywhere. There’s so much more to come. ◼ More coffee brands creating their own Genuine Coldstretto Extractions. ◼ More restaurants and bars using this dynamic coffee ingredient to craft a variety of beverages. ◼ Grocery shelves filled with Coldstretto products from a variety of coffee brands. We’re guiding coffee brands to this future. Let’s transform cold coffee together.

Prepare yourself for a revolutionary coffee experience at the Specialty Coffee Expo this year. We’re serving a selection of refreshingly simple sparkling and still beverages featuring a variety of Genuine Coldstretto® Extractions. Our menu is designed to showcase the distinct character of each coffee, inviting you to consider the full potential of coffee refreshment for your own brand.

2019 United States Barista Champion Sam Spillman is taking over the BKON Booth for a Power Hour. She'll be crafting the Seattle Shandy, a Caffe Vita colorful concoction of lemonade, made with Butterfly Pea Powder, topped with a shot of Vita’s Cold Shot Espresso. Chat with Sam about their upcoming launch of Vita Cold Shot Espresso - Caffe Del Sol.

Join BKON’s first Coldstretto® brand partner for an afternoon refreshment break at the Specialty Coffee Expo. Learn how Joe Coffee Company has unleashed Coldstretto as a multi-channel platform for menu innovation and business growth. Be the first to taste their Nightcap Decaf as a Coldstretto® extraction. We’ll be serving their signature drink, the Orange Blossom Tonic with your choice of Waverly or Nightcap Coldstretto®.

The BKON team recently attended the National Coffee Association USA  Convention in a weekend filled with energy, education, connection and fun. We met many new faces and enjoyed time spent with industry friends. We participated in our first day of service. We presented on the future of cold coffee to a packed room of engaged attendees. We participated in several conference sessions and special events. We crafted many drinks with our innovation, Coldstretto®, and watched excited reactions from tasters. We came away in awe of the NCA for the work they do. If we didn’t connect, but you’re attending the Specialty Coffee Expo, we’d love to see you in Booth 725.

We love nothing more than to talk about cold coffee, in a group, one-on-one and in a room full of passionate coffee professionals. That's why we couldn't be more excited to present to the National Coffee Association USA community for the first time next week. Join BKON President & Co-Founder Lou Vastardis for a futuristic view of what's likely to become the coffee industry's most significant and innovative growth phase in recent history. He'll delve into the opportunities and challenges shaping the coffee refreshment sector and examine the factors propelling the evolution of the cold ""coffee-as-ingredient"" category.
