Williams Sonoma, a member of the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) portfolio of brands, announced today the launch of a Williams Sonoma branded line of coffee capsules. Blended from 100% Fair Trade Certified™* coffee and featuring 100% recyclable aluminum packaging, the new capsules reflect Williams Sonoma’s commitment to exceptional quality, sustainability and long-term relationships with coffee farmers.

The coffee inside the new Williams Sonoma Coffee Capsules comes from leading coffee producing countries worldwide, including Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, Honduras, India and Kenya. Developed in collaboration with European coffee masters, the Williams Sonoma Coffee Capsules are suitable for OriginalLine Nespresso® drop through capsule machines**. The collection will launch with six flavors that are sold in sets of 10 capsules for $7.95. Each capsule makes one cup of espresso. The flavors available at launch are:

Intenso - a perfectly balanced cup with aromatic notes of dark chocolate.

Ristretto - an intense, luxurious flavor with hints of citrus and cocoa.

Cremoso - a spicy aroma and rich flavor with a smooth, nutty finish.

Vanilla - a velvety, full-bodied espresso with sweet, creamy notes of pure vanilla.

Lungo - an expertly balanced espresso with a nutty aroma and notes of black tea.

Decaf Intenso - a subtle, woodsy aroma with delicate notes of ripe fruit.

To celebrate the launch of the new Williams Sonoma Coffee Capsules, all Williams Sonoma stores will be hosting a Williams Sonoma Coffee Academy technique class Saturday, April 6th. In this class, customers can learn all about the new Williams Sonoma Coffee Capsules and learn to create three recipes using the new capsules including lattes, affogato and coffee granita.

Starting on April 8th, Williams Sonoma will be giving @williamssonoma Instagram followers a chance to win a year’s worth of the new Williams Sonoma Coffee Capsules. Followers are encouraged to snap and share a picture of their morning coffee and tag @williamssonoma to enter.

Williams Sonoma’s flagship store in New York at Columbus Circle will also be transformed into a coffee shop from April 5th – 7th. Customers are encouraged to stop by the store for a free coffee and more information about the new Williams Sonoma Coffee Capsules. Ujae Lee, the 2018 Coffee Fest World Latte Art Champion will also be on site to help celebrate.

Fair Trade Certified Coffee

Fair trade standards protect farmers from dramatic dips in the market price by requiring a floor price of $1.40/pound with an additional $.30 for Organic coffee. Additionally, for every pound of Fair Trade Certified coffee sold, farmers earn an additional $0.20 premium on top of the sale price. These earnings are placed into a Community Development Fund to be invested in critical community projects like education, healthcare, and quality improvement. This fund ensures that shoppers can have a direct impact on the farmers’ lives and address their most important needs each time they purchase Fair Trade Certified coffee.
