Flavia Decaf Hazelnut Discontinued. Now What?

Posted by Alex in Coffee | Product Information - (0 Comments)

When Alterra coffees were introduced to replace Flavia coffees, Decaf Hazelnut was discontinued without a direct replacement. We have finally run out of stock of the traditional Flavia Decaf Hazelnut, so there are currently no decaf flavored coffee filterpacks for your single-cup Flavia brewer.

However, we don’t want to leave our customers hanging, so we have found a solution for you to try. Brew a cup of Alterra House Blend Decaf (code: ALTHBD) and pump in some Weldon Hazelnut flavoring (code: WHZ) to create your own cup of decaf hazelnut coffee!

This completes the transition from Flavia to Alterra Coffee and Bright Tea. Follow the links to learn about the full coffee and tea product lines!

Cafe Escapes Premium Hot Chocolate K-Cups Available

Posted by Alex in New Product | Product Information - (0 Comments)

We previously announced that Cafe Escapes K-Cups were coming soon — now they’re here! In stock and ready for delivery.

Cafe Escapes K-Cups

4 Premium Cafe Escapes K-Cups Are Available

Green Mountain has discontinued its traditional hot cocoa K-Cup — Cafe Escapes are a higher-quality alternative. We do still have a large supply (approximately 3 months worth) of Green Mountain Hot Cocoa K-Cups in inventory, but once it is sold out, Cafe Escapes will be the substitute.

Traditional Hot Cocoa K-Cups: Phased Out By Green Mountain

You don’t have to wait — Cafe Escapes are in stock today if you want to upgrade to the premium cocoa alternative — or just order a box to see what all of the fuss is about. This line is made up of four different options — Cafe Mocha (GMKMOCHA), Chai Latte (GMKCHAI), Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa (GMKDHC), and Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa (GMKMHC). Please note that these indulgent offerings are more expensive than the rest of the K-Cup coffee and tea line. We hope you’ll agree that the enhanced quality is worth it!

Cafe Escapes K-Cups are packed 24 per box, and 96 per case. They work exclusively with Keurig single-cup brewers.

Alterra Pumpkin Spice Is Now In Stock!

Posted by Alex in Coffee | New Product | Product Information - (1 Comments)

There is now a seasonal coffee for your Flavia single-cup brewer! Alterra Pumpkin Spice is in stock!

Alterra Pumpkin Spice Self-Merchandising Kits

Seasonal Alterra Pumpkin Spice In Self-Merchandising Kits

Alterra Pumpkin Spice is available for as long as supplies last — anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months depending on demand. Instead of being sold on rails like other Alterra Coffees and Bright Teas, Pumpkin Spice is being sold as loose packets in self-merchandising kits. The advantage of this arrangement is that you don’t have to make room in your merchandiser for a temporary item. The self-merchandising Pumpkin Spice box sits easily atop the merchandiser or on your table-top next to your brewer.

If your brewer has two-pack functionality, Mars Drinks recommends using the cappuccino button to brew Pumpkin Spice along with Cappuccino Swirl, to create a Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino!

Try Pumpkin Spice As A Cappuccino!

There are 16 packets per kit and 80 packets per case. Remember, Flavia filterpacks can only be used with a Flavia single-cup brewer. Don’t yet have Flavia in your office? Ask us for a free trial!

July 2011 Employee Of The Month

Posted by Alex in About CDC | CDC News - (0 Comments)

Congratulations Jacob, CDC’s July 2011 Employee of the Month!

CDC July 2011 Employee of the Month

In his fifth year with CDC, Jacob is our primary “late driver.” While most of our delivery trucks hit the road between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM to beat traffic and secure prime parking, Jacob’s day starts around 11:00 AM. He handles the emergency “today” orders that come in during the morning, that cannot wait for next-day delivery. As a result, he not only ends up handling high priority deliveries, but he has to cover a wide territory, rather than one dense geographic area. Jacob handles it all with his trademark smile and outgoing attitude. On top of it all, he’s a key contributor to our company softball team!

Ice Machines For Easy Iced Coffee and Tea

Posted by Alex in Equipment - (0 Comments)

Beat the heat!

Did you know that Coffee Distributing Corp. leases ice machines? For a low monthly fee, we can provide you with a small table-top ice-maker. Sit it right next to your coffee maker to give your staff or customers another refreshment option!

Kool Tek Office Ice Machine

CDC Offers Ice Machines!

We have previously blogged about some of the fun iced tea drinks that you can brew — particularly if you have one of the popular Flavia or Keurig single-cup brewers. Realizing that not all offices have easy access to ice, we sourced this ice maker as an affordable and convenient option.

With a footprint of just 14″ wide by 17.75″ high by 16″ deep, and a capacity of approximately 150 ice cubes, we hope you will agree that this machine is worth a look. It is UL-listed, requires little energy, and can be plumbed-in or used as a pour-over. Download the counter-top ice maker PDF and contact us to learn more!

Flavia Customers: Now Is The Time To Try Teas

Posted by Alex in Product Information - (0 Comments)

Due to rising green coffee prices worldwide, both of the popular single-cup coffee systems — Keurig and Flavia — recently passed along price increases. However, whereas Green Mountain increased the cost of both coffee and tea K-Cups to maintain line pricing, Mars Drinks only increased their coffees.

As a result, if you have a Flavia brewer, tea will now cost you less than coffee! If you haven’t yet tried all ten of the reformulated Bright Teas, now might be a good time. Purchase a rail of each with your next order, and see what sticks. Black teas, green teas, flavored teas, and naturally caffeine-free herbals are all available.

These Ten Bright Teas Are Now An Economical Option For Our Flavia Customers

Concerned that you don’t have room in your merchandiser to add more drinks? Contact us, and we will be happy to set you up with split merchandiser cards, allowing you to offer two drinks in one drawer, in a presentable way.
