SUNTORY CRAFTS KOYOMI FOR AUSSIES
Coca-Cola Amatil is the Australian distributor introducing Beam Suntory's newly created highball premix range, Koyomi Highball.

ORGANIC COCONUT OILS ENTER THE AISLES
Murray River Organics (MRO) has introduced a new range of coconut oils under its Pacific Organics brand. The health credentials and benefits of coconut oil led to the creation of the new range. MRO chief marketing officer Tara Lordsmith said coconut oil can aid digestion and boost immunity. “There are studies that have shown coconut oil can raise blood levels of good HDL cholesterol, which is linked to improved metabolic health and a lower risk of heart disease,” she said.
The new range is available in three flavours – Garlic, Chilli and Ginger – with each flavour chosen specifically for both its health benefits as well as taste.
“Chilli is beneficial to boosting immunity and clearing congestion, garlic contains antioxidants and improves bone health, and ginger assists in treating forms of nausea and lowering blood sugar levels,” said Lordsmith.
“What’s more, coconut oil has a relatively low smoke point compared to other commonly used cooking fats, so it’s perfectly suitable for sautéing, baking, roasting, and even frying.”
The Pacific Organics coconut oil range will be rolling out in stores over the coming weeks.
Mixed Nuts range.
“We have added two more formats to our range of
nuts that have been specially crafted to deliver a delicious, indulgent snack for our consumers,” said Red Rock Deli senior brand manager Lauren Mather.
The Roasted Mixed Nuts varieties are roasted and coated with gourmet deli inspired flavours, while the Glazed Nuts are combined with dried fruit and then glazed with syrup.
Red Rock Deli Mixed Nuts are available in two flavours – Balsamic Vinegar and Chilli, and Caramelised Garlic and Lemon – as well as for the Glazed Nuts range, with Honey, Vanilla and Cranberries, and Cinnamon and Apple Crumble.
The new nuts range is available Australia-wide in Coles and Woolworths, and select independent and convenience stores, in a 100g pack RRP$3.99.
