AfroCoffee's wine-box with radio

Afrocoffee's African-inspired coffee and other products are really lovely -- especially this wine-box with a working integrated radio!

Our mission is to communicate the joys of Africa through our Afro Cafes and our Afro branded products. The fact that the African people are so wonderfully not self-conscious at all, their humour and freedom and their style and design. Hopefully we can convey this spirit and enhance the lives of people who consume our product and sip coffee listening to Afro Tunes at our cafes. For South Africa, we try to show just how cool Afro culture actually is and instill a sense of confidence into people to make them realize what they already are. Lofty ideals but we’ll have a go!

Love the wine box. It's evocative of the Fisher-Price "Princess Says" See 'n Say:

(But much nicer!)

That is so Cape Town!

... and the company website. It's all done in the form of sliding tea drawers (using Flash, obviously).

No BS it sings of joy.
Wine, music, art, and the enjoyment of good company?
Universal, really. :)

Hey, and you could score that box to make an enclosure for the radio bit afterward to make a more compact package when the wine is finished. :)

This is wonderful!
'Strider' said it better than I could.

It's a delightful and unique concept (and their website has really clever and original graphics).

Thanks for the post.

Antonio Fargas would approve...

I couldn't find the wine box on the site. I don't have full Flash-ability, so I might be missing it. Did anybody else find it?

That is so pimptacular. I'm reminded of Jim Rugg's retro-70's blaxploitation superhero Afrodisiac from Street Angel.

Africans don't have any freedom because we haven't invaded them yet.
