BASINGSTOKE, England, March 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

New FLAVIA® Barista Brewer Fuels Moments of Business Collaboration 

What if coffee breaks led to something bigger? They can. Mars Drinks-a 100 percent workplace-dedicated segment of Mars, Incorporated-believes that fueling great-tasting moments at work is intrinsically linked to workplace vitality by inspiring collaboration, productivity, engagement and well-being. That's why today, the company introduces the latest innovation in workplace drinks solutions: FLAVIA barista.

Sleek and state-of-the-art, Mars Drinks' FLAVIA barista brews premium, coffeehouse-style hot beverages in individual servings. The machine perfectly crafts authentic espresso with a thick, rich 'crema' at the touch of a button, as well as a full line of coffees, teas, hot chocolate and espresso-based drinks.

True to its name, the FLAVIA barista is a coffee artisan, calibrating pressure, tamping and temperature to deliver consistently amazing drinks, with a proprietary brewing method that ensures no flavor cross-contamination. And by design, the FLAVIA barista is visually appealing from all angles, serving as a functional piece of art for the office environment. With the push of a button, the FLAVIA barista brewer acts as the centerpiece of the workplace, from the boardroom to the break room.

 "We believe that people are the most important asset to any business, and our drink solutions have been specifically designed with the workplace in mind, to fuel workplace vitality," said Hossam Ashraf, General Manager of Mars Drinks United Kingdom. "It is our belief that the FLAVIA barista will inspire senior managers and interns alike to communicate, collaborate and share ideas over a fresh, premium hot beverage," he said.

To build on its authentic espresso capability, Mars Drinks has teamed with premier global coffee brand Segafredo Zanetti® and Massimo Zanetti Beverage Group to feature three Segafredo Zanetti espresso blends with Mars Drinks' FLAVIA barista brewer internationally. In addition to the Segafredo Zanetti line, Mars Drinks will offer espresso and espresso decaf options through their ALTERRA® Coffee Roasters brand.

Additionally, new customers can book an appointment to visit Mars Drinks' London showroom and experience their full workplace drinks solution offering, including the FLAVIA barista machine by contacting marsdrinks.uk@effem.com .
