The Ritter Sport Pistachio Tower is being launched by the brand in collaboration with travel retailer Gebr. Heinemann as a limited-edition product exclusive for the travel retail channel. The product features five bars of pistachio-infused chocolate that each measure in at 100-grams and are thus perfect for gifting occasions or to keep on hand for portioned indulgence. The chocolate starts off with the brand's creamy milk chocolate infused with roasted pieces of crunchy pistachio with a touch of salt to give every bite a sweet and savory taste experience.
Key Account Manager for Heinemann Ignacio Aznar commented on the new Ritter Sport Pistachio Tower saying, "This collaboration with Heinemann underlines our strong and ongoing partnership. We are like-minded in the travel retail industry, determined to go that extra mile to offer our travelling consumers something outstanding."
