Who we are:
The inception of Sleepy Owl can be traced back to three friends - Arman Sood, Ashwajeet Singh and Ajai Thandi, who despite their love for coffee, couldn't find a good cup when they needed it. Hence, they decided to brew their own and invented a product they loved. The vision at Sleepy Owl is to redefine the in-home and out-of-home coffee experience, and make your cup of coffee better, everyday. Today, the brand stands over 5 years strong with a strong product portfolio that includes Cold Brew Packs, Hot Brew Bags, Ready-To-Drink Cold Brew Bottles, Ground Coffee, Brew Box and a range of Merchandise . Sleepy Owl’s signature chocolatey and nutty flavor comes from single-origin, Grade-A plantation Arabica beans grown at 5300ft in Chikmagalur, Karnataka. The coffee is freshly roasted and ground everyday, and sealed immediately for dispatch. No exceptions. Ever. Sleepy Owl has also eliminated the use of plastic in its packaging, and now uses 100% recyclable packaging which is sustainable.
