6oz Coffee Launches First Outlet in Bengaluru, Aiming to Redefine India’s Coffee Scene

6oz Coffee, an innovative artisan coffee brand founded by Singapore-based Indian Sam Roberts, has launched its first outlet in Ulsur, Bengaluru. Roberts, a psychology doctorate student and coffee enthusiast, aims to introduce the rich and diverse flavors of 100% pure Indian coffee beans to a broader audience with this debut.

The brand is an extension of the KOORG brand and is deeply inspired by Karnataka’s coffee heritage. Karnataka is responsible for 71% of India’s coffee production, with regions like Coorg, Chikmagalur, and Hassan known for their high-quality Arabica and Robusta beans. These beans are grown in the shade of dense forests, which not only preserve biodiversity but also enhance the beans’ unique flavor profiles.

6oz Coffee offers a modern, minimalist approach to coffee, celebrating the craftsmanship and heritage of Indian coffee. The menu features a wide array of options, including over 15 classic coffee variations, special fusions, swirls, and boba creations. There are also flavored coffees, non-caffeinated options, and a specialty manual brewing edition. To complement the coffee experience, the outlet offers savory treats, cookies, and snacks.

At the opening of the first outlet, Sam Roberts shared, “Our mission at 6oz Coffee is to passionately promote the richness of Indian coffee beans and offer exceptional handcrafted experiences. 6oz Coffee aspires to be more than just a coffee brand; it aims to be a driving force in shaping the future of the coffee industry. We are dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of sourcing, quality and supporting local coffee farmers in Karnataka. Every cup of 6oz Coffee not only delivers an exceptional coffee experience but also supports the livelihoods of those who grow it. We are excited to launch our first outlet in Bengaluru and plan to open 2 additional outlets in the coming months. We believe that 6oz Coffee will compete strongly with premium coffee chains and brands by setting a new professional level for artisan coffee.” 

6oz Coffee is set to disrupt the traditional coffee scene with its unique brewing methods and diverse flavor profiles. By blending traditional Indian techniques with modern innovation, the brand is poised to offer a distinctive coffee experience. The company also plans to create exclusive coffee events, including educational workshops, with a focus on sustainability and ethical sourcing.

Looking ahead, 6oz Coffee plans to expand its presence both locally and internationally. The brand aims to cater to evolving customer tastes by diversifying its offerings and embracing emerging trends such as cold brews, single-origin coffees, and sustainable coffee pods.
