Thanks to the folks at cafepods.com for sending this in.

"Hi Jay,

yep I remember these, I used to work for company that sold a similar product about 10 years ago. It made instant espresso. Its very big in Japan, both self heating cans and vending machines that heat a store of cans. Heres the image of the nescafe version I believe that puck will just be a rebranded version of this. From memory you just press a button on the underneath of the can, it releases one chemical into another causing a heat reaction.

hey, they tried this in the uk and it bombed and was withdrawn. the coffee was awful, it was expensive (you bought a 330ml can and a third of that space was heating chemicals) and it was slow to heat up. nestle pulled it from the market after a few months for "further development".
