Thai drinks maker General Beverage does not sell alcoholic drinks in China

General Beverage Co Ltd, a leading Thai drinks maker, has clarified on its if溢福 brand‘s Chinese Weibo account that it does not produce or sell any alcoholic beverages in China. While the company did not explicitly state the reason for the announcement, it appears that a Chinese company has launched alcoholic drinks using the “IF” brand.

Image credit: Minimeinsights.com

The IF branded alcoholic drink (Coconut Fresh Wine, Lemon Fresh Wine, and Cherry Fresh Wine) utilises a logo similar to General Beverage’s IF brand, potentially causing consumer confusion. In China, General Beverage sells only juices, tea drinks, oat milk and foods under the if溢福 brand.

Nepresso Celebrates Renewal And Prosperity With An Unforgettable Taste For New Beginnings This Lunar New Year

The festive lineup introduces revitalising coffee capsules, indulgent recipes, and auspicious accessories to honour traditions

KUALA LUMPUR, 9 JAN 2025 – Nespresso welcomes the Lunar New Year (LNY) with Unforgettable Taste for New Beginnings, a campaign that draws inspiration from the artistry of the traditional lucky knot and the symbolism of the Year of the Wood Snake. The lucky knot takes centre stage in the campaign’s imagery and collection designs, symbolising wisdom, connection, and renewal. From intricate motifs woven into refined visuals to exquisitely crafted coffee recipes and thoughtfully designed accessories, the collection embodies the season’s spirit of prosperity and new beginnings with Nespresso’s signature sophistication.

At the heart of the collection is a new limited-edition Vertuo Ginseng Delight, a smooth yet invigorating coffee crafted to awaken the senses and embodies vitality. This double espresso blend is enhanced with the gentle sweetness of caramel and the delicate complexity of ginseng extract, offering a revitalising and versatile character. Perfect for moments of quiet reflection or joyful reunions, this hero coffee captures the spirit of the LNY with its balance of flavour and symbolism.

Discover the Ginseng Delight in the Vertuo Discovery Assortment (RM260.50), a 6-sleeve selection featuring Altissio, Colombia, Melozio, Peanut & Roasted Sesame Flavour and Almond Croissant Flavour coffees, offering a variety of flavours to suit every palate. For those using Original machines, the 8-sleeve Original Discovery Assortment (RM239) features Arpeggio, Napoli, Volluto, Shanghai Lungo, Istanbul Espresso, Venezia, and festive blends like Peanut & Roasted Sesame Flavour and Almond Croissant Flavour. These curated packs promise a diverse and indulgent coffee experience, perfect for gatherings and gifting this LNY.

The LNY collection also features a selection of accessories and rewards infused with cultural charm and thoughtful design. Vibrant LNY red packets adorned with the Nespresso snake lucky knot motif, alongside the limited-edition LNY Lume Gran Lungo Mugs (RM128) and LNY Foldable Tote Bag (available as a gift with purchase), add a touch of elegance and practicality to the festivities.

For a truly elevated coffee ritual, Nespresso offers two exclusive gifting boxes. The Original LNY Gifting Box (RM186) includes the limited-edition mug set, a Cappuccino Kit featuring a cocoa shaker and stencil set, red packets, and two beloved blends: Shanghai Lungo and Napoli.

Spring Garden

Spring Garden, with its caramel macchiato base, showcases the floral and fruity elegance of Ginseng Delight. Infused with milk, rose petals, and dried cranberries, this recipe reflects the themes of renewal and prosperity central to Lunar New Year celebrations.

Double Vigor

Double Vigour combines bright citrus notes from orange and apple with the smooth, full-bodied character of Vertuo’s Stormio Go. Enhanced by the sweetness of longan honey, this vibrant recipe symbolises peace, success, and sweetness for the year ahead. In Mandarin, the word for apple, “ping guo” (蘋), is a homophone for “ping” (平), meaning peace and safety, while “chéng” (橙), the word for orange, mirrors “chéng” (成), symbolising success. Each recipe is easy to recreate at home and is available at nespresso.com/lunar-new-year.

The Nespresso’s Unforgettable Taste for New Beginnings Collection launches online and in Nespresso boutiques from 8 Jan 2025 and will be available for a limited time.
