This partnership is as seamless as your favourite cup of coffee on a match day — one that feels just right. With #BrewBoldPlayBold, we’re thrilled to create memorable moments for fans through the season, where every sip and every cheer carries the same energy.”
Even off the field, coffee will fuel the bold — with a dedicated Third Wave Coffee pop-up café set up inside the RCB team room, serving handcrafted brews to players as they gear up for the game.
Echoing this excitement, Rajesh V Menon, COO, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, added, “At RCB, we are fueled by passion, dedication, and the strong bond we have built with our fans over the past 18 years.
