ESPRO® To Showcase Ultralight Travel Press at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market

VANCOUVER, BC (July 20, 2018) - ESPRO®, creators of superior French presses and brewing accessories that simply
“Make it Better,” will showcase its innovative line of products at the 2018 Outdoor Retailer Summer Market in Denver,
Colorado, July 23-26 at booth #21341-SL.


In addition to the Everest-tested Press P7 the category-winning Press P5 and the adventure-ready Travel Press, ESPRO will
spotlight its newest and most innovative press to date: the Ultralight Travel Press (MSRP $39.95), the lightest 16-ounce
combination coffee press and hydration bottle of its kind. Made with vacuum insulated stainless steel, it keeps contents hot
or cold for hours and allows outdoor enthusiasts and avid travelers alike to caffeinate and hydrate anywhere, at any time.
The Ultralight is the world’s lightest stainless steel hydration bottle, weighing 7.4 ounces (bottle and lid) with the capacity to
hold 16 ounces of liquid, while also being the world’s lightest travel press, weighing only 9.5 ounces (including rod and filters)
with the brewing capacity of 12 ounces of coffee or tea.


Each ESPRO press, including the Ultralight, house the brand’s patented double microfilter which allows users to create a
quick and perfect cup of French press coffee every time, even in the backcountry. Made with vacuum insulated stainless
steel, the walls of the press keep beverages hotter longer, so coffee drinkers can prep the press before heading out on the
day’s adventure and enjoy a hot cup at their destination. Additionally, the patented technology of the microfilters isolates the
grinds to block further extraction, ensuring consistent superior-quality taste from the first sip to the last.


“Our Ultralight has been stopping people in their tracks since its beginning and now we’re extremely excited to finally
introduce the press to the people we had in mind through the development process: the outdoor industry,” said Bruce
Constantine, President of ESPRO. “We know how important a good cup of coffee is to all of our users and the Ultralight ticks
all the boxes for portability, durability and ability to produce high-quality brews no matter where you end up, while doubling
as the lightest hydration bottle on the market. It means the world to us to be bringing this product to you.”

ESPRO products can be purchased online, at fine coffee, tea and kitchen stores everywhere, at a growing list of outdoor
retailers, and at Williams & Sonoma and Sur La Table stores nationwide.

About ESPRO®
ESPRO®, a member of the Regal Ware family, exists to bring the best cup of coffee and tea to every table. In 2002 Bruce
Constantine and Chris McLean met for coffee, and sketched their first product concept on the back of a napkin- a calibrated
tamper to make more consistent espresso. By April 2004, ESPRO had emerged. The first years were characterized by a
string of products aimed at improving the consistency of espresso and milk foam. In 2012, ESPRO introduced the
groundbreaking ESPRO P7 Press, the first grit-free French press coffee and tea maker. It has garnered global accolades,
including two consecutive Best New Product awards by the Specialty Coffee Association of America (2015 and 2016).


Today ESPRO is working towards engineering products that will shake and reshape the way coffee is consumed. With its
range of innovative products designed to achieve consistently great results, ESPRO is destined to carve an important niche
among coffee and tea aficionados.
