Coffee Tasting Events Give Three Lucky Cities a Free Morning Pick-Me-Up
Nescafé Tasters Choice recently treated early morning risers to a jumpstart on the day with free samples of fresh, black coffee and coffee-flavored drinks and desserts.
HOUSTON, Texas (PRWEB) June 29, 2005 -- On three consecutive Thursday mornings in May, Nescafé Tasters Choice handed out samples of its instant coffee concoctions to passers-by in San Antonio, Baltimore and Hartford with help from local radio stations, Ad Results, Ltd., and the Eleven Agency.
On May 5th Nescafé Tasters Choice set up tables and tents in San Antonios downtown IBC Plaza. From 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., over 750 people stopped by for free cups of fresh coffee, and creations like Cappuccino Chills and Java Brownies, all made using Nescafé Tasters Choice 100% pure instant coffee granules. Local country radio station, KAJA, brought out their Man on the Street," Cactus Lou, to broadcast from the event.
The Tastes of Nescafé Tasters Choice" saw an even larger turnout in Baltimore on May 12. An estimated 3,000 showed up to taste and smell the selection of free samples at the corner of Pratt Street and Light Street in the Inner Harbor. Mix 106.5s Kenny Campbell was on hand to play music and promote the event with live call-ins to co-host JoJo Girard back in the studio.
Hartfords event brought out the biggest number of samplers, with 3,700 showing up to the Old State House Square on May 19th. Music from WDRC-FM Hits of the 60s and 70s" set the mornings mood. Like the other events, not only did participants get to try a variety of treats made with Nescafé Tasters Choice, but they all walked away with a 2-week supply of instant coffee to use.
The primary goal of the Tastes of Nescafé Tasters Choice" events was to convince coffee drinkers to rediscover how good instant coffee can be. Nescafé Tasters Choice prides itself on being real coffee made with a superior blend of beans that you can brew right in your cup. They also wanted to emphasize that Nescafé Tasters Choice can be used to make a variety of coffee-flavored drinks and desserts like Caramel Café Lattes or Chocolate Mudslide Frozen Pies.
All three tasting events were coordinated by The Eleven Agency, a sales and marketing agency out of Irvine, California.
