The idea of introducing this flavour was born from a trip that outgoing CEO Howard Schultz took to Italy this summer. He was mesmerised by the Mediterranean culture of taking a spoonful of olive oil each day. Soon, he too began drinking olive oil with his coffee and decided that Starbucks should try to infuse the two together. “I was absolutely stunned at the unique flavour and texture created when the Partanna extra virgin olive oil was infused into Starbucks coffee,” Schultz said. “In both hot and cold coffee beverages, what it produced was an unexpected, velvety, buttery flavour that enhanced the coffee and lingers beautifully on the palate,” he further added.

Speaking of how excited he was to launch the new flavour, Schultz said, “Now, there’s going to be people who say, “Olive oil in coffee? But the proof is in the cup. In over 40 years, I can’t remember a moment in time where I’ve been more excited, more enthused that demonstrates the pride, the quality, the passion, the heritage and the craft of what Starbucks can do.”
