We’re honoring International Coffee Day with TWO Curion panelist polls to give you insights into the coffee trends that consumers are most interested in trying. With years of experience testing thousands of coffee products with hundreds of thousands of consumers, we’ve become trusted experts in both restaurant and CPG categories. Today, we ground up the insights in our latest consumer polls to give you some answers. Which coffee trend would you most like to try? (At-home and Restaurant) Key Findings: • 39% of respondents prefer café-quality coffee at home. • 25% are experimenting with DIY cold brews at home, adding flavors like cinnamon and citrus peel. • 24% favor globally inspired coffee at cafés or restaurants (think Vietnamese or Turkish). • 20% are drawn to Nitro coffee at cafés or restaurants. Overall, our full data from these polls proves that coffee drinkers are becoming more sophisticated in their tastes, seeking high-quality, flavorful, and personalized experiences, both at home and in restaurants. Which coffee innovations and trends do you see that are brewing up the most excitement? Let us know in the comments! #InternationalCoffeeDay #CoffeeInnovation #CoffeeTrends #ConsumerInsights #Curion #ProductTesting #MarketResearch #Coffee #Innovations #BeverageTrends #CoffeeData #CoffeeResearch
