The updated range includes the new roast Canopy Climb, a 100% single origin arabica coffee with a light smooth taste. The introduction of new formats includes coffee bags, Nespresso-compatible capsules and larger out of home packs of its existing coffee, which has been renamed Dark Forest.
Through the Orang Utan Coffee brand, UCC Coffee aims to provide long-term support for the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme. Orang Utan Coffee donates €0.50 for each kilogram of green bean coffee to its farmers, with a further €0.50 going to the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme.
Dan McGrath, marketing director at UCC Coffee, said: “Year on year, consumers are increasingly interested in sustainable and responsibly sourced products, and Orang Utan Coffee offers delicious variety that can be enjoyed anywhere.
“Not only is there an inspirational story behind the brand that resonates with consumers but the coffees rate very highly in flavour and quality. The coffees have been specifically made to improve an operator’s coffee offering, both in final product and in sustainability credentials, making it easy for customers and stockists to do their bit.”
