To mark International Coffee Day (October 1), Celestyal has announced the expansion of its onboard specialty coffee shop 'Café Nation'.
The venue, currently available on the 1,266-passenger Celestyal Discovery, will now also be offered on the 1,260-guest Celestyal Journey in preparation for its inaugural season in the Arabian Gulf, which will begin at the end of November this year.
Operated in partnership with the renowned coffee brand illy, Café Nation offers over 90 specialty beverages, along with the option for guests to customize their orders. The menu includes a selection of hot barista coffees, herbal infusions, creamy hot chocolates and frappuccinos, iced coffees and teas, as well as cold brew coffee. Customers can also choose from seven different coffee varieties, including five single origins, premium blends, or decaf.
Founded in 1933, illy is one of the world's most recognized coffee brands. Its unique blend comes from nine of the finest 100% Arabica varieties, sourced from the top 1% of Arabica varieties grown worldwide.
Lee Haslett, Chief Commercial Officer of Celestyal, said: “We are delighted to extend our partnership with the world-renowned illy brand. Café Nation has been a fantastic hit with our guests on board the Celestyal Discovery, and with over 85,000 coffees served on the Celestyal Journey alone in the last year, we are confident this popular meeting place will be warmly welcomed on board. After all, coffee is an international daily ritual.”.
