'Standart captures the intersection of coffee’s hospitality and science in a way that few others have ever achieved.
Their dedication to highlighting pillars of the coffee industry, scientific innovations, and history through the lens of art has made them a must have on my bookshelf for years.'
'Standart not only sets an unprecedented standard for coffee magazines with regards to art and culture, but it provides an array of literature from all sides of the industry. By not focusing on any one sector, they've been able to curate an incredibly accessible and beautiful and intriguing collection of essays and articles that are now an integral part of my coffee routine.'
'Standart's success surprised me at first, as I had thought long-form print was dying. But it's gratifying to see coffee lovers embrace a magazine that dives deep, intelligently, into issues that matter to our industry.'
'The articles in Standart cover a wide range of topics pertinent to the industry. The production value of the magazine is excellent, including the layout, photography, and illustration.'
'A publication that dreams big and deftly blends artistry, intellect, and a love for coffee into a delicious mix of articles with generous spirit, relevant material, and just the right amount of seriousness.'
'Standart is the one and only coffee-centred magazine that tells culture diversity through coffee. It has intelligent contents and design, and is full of fact-based articles that stimulate my intellectual curiosity.’
'You’ll just as easily read a profile with a barista champion right after a piece exploring tasseography, the art of reading tea and coffee leaves. Content is at the forefront in Standart.'
'Standart is highest end celebration of coffee as art, science and people. A masterpiece of quality journalism advancing the understanding of all things coffee.'

Standart Issue 40
Our 40th exploration into the world of coffee brings you the theme of crisis—because when things fall apart, we discover what truly holds.
Coffee is rather good at this sort of thing. It doesn’t fix the problem, but it does make the conversation warmer, the silences less awkward, and the world marginally more bearable. In a cafe, people share tables, sugar, and—occasionally— life stories they’d never dream of revealing outside those walls.
Comes with 50g of complimentary coffee to brew: Ethiopia Lalesa—natural, slow dry coffee brought to you by Fathers Coffee Roastery in Ostrava, Czechia.
