On International Coffee Day, Rosneft volunteers across Russia treated motorists to a true taste experience, introducing them to premium Venezuelan coffee, supplied by special order from the Company.
What makes this coffee unique is its origin. Venezuelan coffee beans are rarely seen on the market today due to the country's small export volumes. Bean supplies to Russia are carried out as part of a strategic partnership: in 2023, Rosneft Oil Company and Venezuelan companies signed agreements on the direct supply of Venezuelan-produced coffee beans on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.
At Rosneft's special request, a delicate roasting process is carried out in the South American country using Arabica beans grown in the Andes at an altitude of 1,800 meters above sea level. Venezuelan coffee is noticeably different from other South American varieties. The deep and complex flavor of Venezuelan coffee makes it considered among the best in the world.
In St. Petersburg and the surrounding region, volunteers from RN-Northwest (part of Rosneft Oil Company) organized a themed celebration for motorists offering a complete immersion into the world of coffee. Guests participated in tastings and master classes, learning about the subtleties of the invigorating beverage's flavor and aroma. At the flagship St. Petersburg gas station, everyone could personally experience the difference, trying to identify the aroma of a particular coffee among others. Rosneft customers also had the opportunity to create a unique car air freshener with a subtle coffee aroma during a master class, and the most knowledgeable participants participated in a quiz and received prizes for correct answers.
At the flagship gas station in St. Petersburg, customers can use a robot barista to prepare their coffee. The machine can brew 24 types of energizing drinks and can also help create and prepare coffee according to a signature recipe. Even more—40 types of coffee bean drinks to suit every taste—are available to car tourists at the gas station on the Kola federal highway in the Leningrad Region.
A number of Rosneft gas stations in Moscow and the Moscow region have prepared themed decorations for this day. The vibrant packaging elements of the exclusive drink are reflected in the interior design, and customers receive their coffee in new, eye-catching cups.
A themed quiz was held at the flagship gas station in Voronezh. True coffee connoisseurs received pleasant branded souvenirs for correct answers.
Rosneft is developing a network of new-format gas stations with cafes under its own brand, Zerno, which emphasize the quality and taste of freshly brewed coffee.
