Los Angeles, California (January 7, 2018) – Lavazza, an authentic Italian family company and one of the leading global coffee companies, will proudly return as the Official Coffee of the 75thAnnual Golden Globe Awards on January 7, 2018. As part of this celebration, Lavazza will have a presence within the Golden Globe Awards Lounge at The Beverly Hilton, where the internationally-renowned ceremony takes place honoring the best in motion pictures and television in one evening. Before, during and immediately following the awards, a pop-up Lavazza café will be featured and fully operative within the Lounge. Designed with a typically Italian contemporary eye, the café will offer Golden Globe winners, nominees, industry leaders and other guests unique Lavazza coffee experiences, including the signature coffeetail, E-Tonic (a cocktail made with Lavazza espresso, gin, tonic water and ginger), and Sambuca Ambra (a molecular gastronomy-inspired alcohol sphere made with Frangelico or Amaretto and Lavazza coffee powder).
Guests will also have the opportunity to sample Kafa, a Lavazza single origin product and one of the world’s finest coffees. These will be served in limited-edition Golden Globes-themed cups specially made for the occasion. The cup, featuring the Golden Globe Awards logo, is inspired by the much-anticipated ceremony and is carefully crafted in black, complemented with real gold. Additionally, the pop-up café will feature a Ripple Maker machine, where guests can have their photos taken and custom-printed onto the foam of their coffee drinks along with the Golden Globe Awards logo. Lavazza will also have experts on hand from its Lavazza Training Center to create and serve these unrivaled coffee recipes.
Lavazza’s experience at the Golden Globe Awards will also be extended to fans across the world on social media with special content created and shared by @LavazzaUSA on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
