'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.'
