CANTON, Mass., Sept. 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- National
Coffee Day is Thursday, September 29,
and Dunkin' Donuts will hail the holiday by raising a cup to its
loyal guests with a coffee offer in celebration of the brand's
66-year history of keeping people running with great coffee each
and every day. Dunkin' Donuts today announced that on National
Coffee Day, guests can enjoy any medium-sized cup of the brand's
signature hot coffee for the special price of 66 cents at participating Dunkin' Donuts
restaurants nationwide.
According to Chris Fuqua, Senior
Vice President, Dunkin' Donuts Brand Marketing, Global
Consumer Insights & Product Innovation, "Dunkin' Donuts' coffee
heritage, and the love people have for our coffee, goes back 66
years to 1950, something no other leading restaurant brand can
match. Since then, our coffee has remained an important part of
millions of guests' daily lives, helping busy people start their
morning and keep on running any time of day or night. For National
Coffee Day in 2016, we say cheers to 66 years by making Dunkin'
Donuts' signature hot coffee available on September
29 for only 66 cents for a
medium-sized cup."
Dunkin' Donuts is also helping fans both show and share their
love of coffee by offering a one-day-only Snapchat Geofilter on
National Coffee Day. The fun design celebrates the day, and can be
unlocked at any of Dunkin' Donuts' U.S. locations on September 29 only.
According to the NPD Group / CREST, Dunkin' Donuts is a leader
in the hot and iced coffee categories in the U.S. The company sells
more than 1.9 billion cups of hot and iced coffee globally ever
year. In addition to the brand's signature hot and iced Original
Blend Coffee, Dunkin' Donuts offers Rainforest Alliance Certified™
Dark Roast, which uses a unique blending and roasting process to
create a bold flavor and smooth finish without the bitterness
typically associated with most dark roast coffees. Dunkin' Donuts
also offers a full lineup of espresso beverages, including
cappuccino, espresso, hot and iced lattes, and hot and iced
macchiato.
Additionally, Dunkin' Donuts restaurants nationwide now offer
Cold Brew coffee, prepared by steeping a special blend of coffee in
cold water over an extended period of time to extract a uniquely
distinctive flavor from the beans. The longer brewing process
provides a rich, smooth coffee with an inherently sweeter flavor
reminiscent of dark chocolate. Cold Brew coffee is crafted by hand
in Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in small batches and served each day
while supplies last.
