“With over 200 years in the business, there’s one thing for sure, we know our oats! We may be known for our porridge, but we’re confident that baristas and foodservice operators will now know us for a whole new reason. This launch is the result of years of innovation, trials and testing to make sure we’re offering an oat drink that delivers on taste, quality and performance. We couldn’t be prouder of the results from our blind testing, coming out as the baristas’ favourite*, and we’re ready to be a real challenger moving forward.”
