The object of the present invention is the combination between a dispenser (1) for dispensing beverages and a container (5) intended to be used in the drawing station (2) of said dispenser (1). Said dispenser (1) and container (5) are provided each with a centring element (4, 6) having reciprocal shape, the coupling thereof enables the positioning of said container (5) inside the compartment (3) of the drawing station (2) of said dispenser (1), in such a way that the mouth (5.2) of said container (5) is vertically aligned with the overlying opening or spout (3.3) for dispensing the beverages. The reciprocal coupling between said centring elements (4, 6) further activates a wireless communication system for the exchange of data between said container (5) and said dispenser (1).
