Oato: Britain’s Best Oats, Bottled in Glass


The freshest-tasting oat drink imaginable, crafted for micro-foam and coffee stability, made using UK ingredients and delivered to your doorstep in a refillable glass bottle that supports British business. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, with Oato, it’s a reality.

Oato was founded on the belief there must be a better option of dairy alternative than imported UHT varieties packaged in non-resusable Tetrapaks. With his background in Chemistry, founder Carl Hopwood set out to craft the finest and freshest oat drink you’ll ever taste, and bottle it in reusable glass.

Keen to support British business, he used British oats, water, rapeseed oil and salt to create the creamiest oat drink around - one can be used just the same as dairy milk, even in hot drinks!

Luckily for us, Carl saw the iconic British milkman as the perfect partner to make his Oato vision a reality. With his brilliant British innovation bottled in the iconic reusable milk bottle, it’s the perfect addition to our refillable range that makes its way to your doorsteps on our electric floats.

Once you’re finished, the glass bottles will be collected by your milkman to be reused as many times as possible.
