Coles Senior Category Manager Dave Evans said: “Coles is the first national Australian supermarket to offer our customers the popular Korean pop band, BTS’s Hot Brew Vanilla Latte 270mL and Cold Brew Americano 270mL coffee.

“BTS is one of the biggest Korean pop acts in the world including in Australia where their passionate fans love to engage with the group, and a key reason why we wanted to offer our customers – and fans of BTS – a unique and special BTS branded product.

“The ready-to-drink coffee range is aromatic and sweet with authentic espresso-based hot brew extract, flavoured with vanilla to create the perfect balance.

“BTS Hot Brews and Cold Brews are available at around 220 selected Coles supermarkets, for a limited-time only and while stocks last.”

This week, the drinks are just half price at $2.75 each.
