About SIP:

SIP was created as a passion project to find cold brew perfection! Once we partnered with Raw, we knew we had a product that we were proud to share with other consumers.  We wanted to offer a ready brewed gourmet experience for coffee connoisseurs looking for that authentic experience.   We only use 100% speciality grade Arabica beans and natural hints of flavour to offer the smoothest, most delicious cold brew coffee.

About RAW:

RAW started off as bootleggers, bringing coffee beans to Dubai in suitcases from their favorite roasteries around the world.

Established in July 2007, Founder, Owner & Managing Director, Kim Thompson, and Owner and CEO, Matt Toogood decided it was time to fill the gap for freshly roasted specialty coffee. The coffee beans used at RAW are all organically certified, roasted in small batches, and available to sample from their warehouse roastery, either as single origins or blends.

Post launch, the RAW team quickly expanded to providing support and training to baristas and finding equipment manufacturers. Today, RAW Coffee Company is recognized internationally in the specialty coffee community as the market leader of the UAE specialty coffee segment. Additionally, RAW prides itself in sourcing coffee beans ethically, whilst ensuring the supplying farmers are treated fairly and can make a sustainable living.
