TAMPA — Tampa-based private equity firm ProspEquity Partners paid $18.2 million less than three weeks ago for a two-thirds stake in Tierra Nueva, a Miami company with a new idea for coffee, and already it has some big news.
Tierra Nueva has inked a deal with Dunkin’ Donuts to help market its “coffee thins” — they look like chocolate, but they’re actually sweet, creamy wafers made from coffee beans. The wafers will be produced in four DD flavors: original, caramel, peppermint mocha and pumpkin spice.
