First Press Coffee have launched a new Iced Coffee

Bringing the taste of your favourite local café home, First Press Coffee have launched a new Iced Coffee made with a cold drip extraction, locally brewed in Melbourne’s inner west.

Taking inspiration from Melbourne’s reputable coffee culture, First Press Cold Drip Dairy Iced Coffee is now available throughout Woolworths nationally, followed by Independent Grocers in September and Coles in November 2024.

The newest addition to First Press’ impressive line-up of artisan coffee beverages include 10 shots of coffee. First Press Iced Coffee delivers pure, cold dripped arabica coffee from Brazil, without refined sweeteners or too much milk.

The one litre First Press Dairy Iced Coffee is 33% of their strongest cold drip coffee with each pack containing 700 milligrams of caffeine, containing twice the caffeine per 100mL as other variants. It is blended with full cream milk and packed into a multi-serve Tetra Pak carton for a week’s supply of iced coffee. The inspiration comes from an increase in consumers wanting a strong coffee without too much milk. The strength of this is similar to a three-quarter iced latte, which is significantly different from the 500-750ml single serve Iced Coffees on the market.

Made from ethically sourced, 100% specialty grade single origin coffee, the drink is slightly sweetened with a dash of raw sugar, with the final count being less than 5g of total sugar per serve. Using an Australian first extraction method, all of First Press’ products are made using their innovative cold drip coffee machines, built by Co-Founder Hamish Walmsley. The process is a delicate 10-hour extraction that delivers a smooth, strong coffee, low in acidity and high in flavour and natural energy.

Affectionately referred to as Sputnik, Voyager and New Horizon, these extraction machines take an Iced Coffee experience to another level. The beauty of cold drip is a less intense style of coffee from a traditional espresso that delivers a smooth and flavourful mouth feel. First Press call themselves merchants of cold drip coffee and are happily placed in an evolving and growing market where speciality coffee is predicted to experience 15.3% annual growth from now until 2030. Co-Founder of First Press Coffee, Jimmy Elias says;

“The evolution of First Press Coffee came about during the Covid lockdowns, as people had more time and plenty of inclination to enjoy a café cold drip coffee experience in the comfort of their home. This was a time when many people were experimenting with new extractions and styles of coffee. Now with the return to work people are busy, so they still want the specialty coffee in a convenient format. With the current cost-of-living crunch, making a quality coffee at home also saves a considerable amount of money.”

Made with single origin arabica coffee beans sourced from Brazil, Australian full cream dairy milk and zero refined sugar, First Press Dairy Iced Coffee range offers convenient speciality coffee for those who seek a strong brew while on the go.
