About La Colombe
La Colombe is a Philadelphia coffee roaster founded in 1994, best known for its canned draft latte, which uses nitrogen to produce a foam head without a machine. Chobani acquired the business in 2023. The purchase gave the yoghurt maker a route into ready-to-drink coffee, one of the fastest-growing parts of American chilled beverage.
