Production of Barista Bros drinks discontinued in Australia

A popular iced coffee brand has been quietly pulled from supermarket shelves nationally.

Coca-Cola Australia has discontinued production of Barista Bros, which specialised mainly in iced coffee products.

In a statement provided to 7NEWS.com.au, the beverage giant said the “difficult decision” was made after “careful consideration”.

“We continuously review our product portfolio to ensure we’re offering more of what people love,” Coca-Cola Australia said.

“The decision will allow us to continue to focus on our core portfolio of products and provide even more of what consumers enjoy.”

The products came in four flavours — Espresso, Double espresso, Mocha and Iced Chocolate — and were available at Woolworths, Coles, IGA, Aldi, independent retail stores and vending machines nationwide.

Cola-Cola said it stopped production of the drinks in May, the same month the products were recalled by Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FZANZ).

The recall was issued due to a “packaging failure” which FZANZ said could lead to a “possible contamination risk”.

“Food products that have been spoiled may cause illness if consumed,” FSANZ said at the time.

All four flavours of the drinks were included in the recall.
