“I recently got in to specialty coffee as a consumer, stumbled upon Standart, & decided to give it a shot! So glad I did! The content is interesting, well researched and written, informative, diverse, and approachable for all coffee enthusiasts. I appreciate that I can read an essay in about the time it takes me to enjoy a cup of coffee, and afterwards, I feel that I’ve learned something. Much better than scrolling through my phone! Standart is beautiful— the layouts, aesthetic, vibrant and abundant photographs, and weight of the paper make it feel luxurious and worthy of space on your coffee table. Oh and the coffee samples are amazing! I love the opportunity to try a bit of coffee (40g, enough for a cupping & a couple pour overs) from somewhere I may not have the opportunity to visit in person. The shipping can take a few weeks, but it’s well worth the wait. If you enjoy speciality coffee and are looking to bring a bit of a coffee-shop experience and indulgence to home, give it a try!”
“Standart is amazing! I love everything about this book (magazine? It feels too substantial to call it a magazine even). This is my only source for coffee news. It makes you feel like coffee truly is something beyond just a morning beverage. Helps keep me connected with the farmers who work so hard to bring us the amazing coffee we drink each day and introduces me to new techniques, equipment, tasting methods, thought processes, perspectives on the hospitality industry, and so much more. I can't say enough great things and on top of it all it's an absolutely gorgeous piece of published work. Looks better than 99% of other publications out there.”
“LOVE Standart! I look forward to receiving it every quarter. Love the past issues I’ve been able to read, overall phenomenal journalism and thought leadership on all things coffee. Cannot recommend enough!!”
“Coffee is already a month old by the time it gets here to the US sadly. My first issue came completely destroyed from water damage as well, but the second issue received was in good condition.”
“Physically, Standart is a beautiful publication. The quality of the paper and the visuals are a real treat. It is matched by the quality of the content. Articles are informative and interesting, covering a wide range of topics and diverse voices.”
“The best coffee magazine! If you are a coffee geek (like me) or a coffee professional (like I would like to one day), it is a must-have on your coffee shelf.”
“Standart is really pushing the boundaries. The quality of the writing is excellent, the design aesthetic, and the quality of the paper all put it on another level from other coffee periodicals.”
“I prolonged my subscription even though The Standart Magazine is no longer published in my native language (Slovak) but only in English. The articles are very good, I like personal stories and insights into coffee shops around the world. I'm looking forward to receiving coffee samples as well. Not only they are very different from coffee that I'm used to buying but they always come in nice packages. Standart is not only worth reading but a design of the magazine resembles a piece of art and looks good on the shelf.”
“Great customer service, they did the best they could to support me in getting the magazine when the postal services lost my copy. Great quality of the print and excellent content. I usually can't wait to get the next issue after I read one :) Keep the good job you're doing!”
“If I had to review Standart magazine in one sentence, I would say that I subscribed to have my own hard copies although every single issue of Standart magazine is available to me for free in my favourite coffee shop. I believe that this fact shows what I think about Standart. After reading last four issues (19-22) from the very first to the very last page, I can say that this magazine is something that each coffee lover should have in his/her coffee library (if you do not have a coffee library, start building one with the very next issue of Standart magazine). Very good articles, both scientific and artistic approach (as coffee needs actually, since coffee is all about art and science), but still clear, simple and interesting language. I have simply enjoyed in reading every single article in this amazing magazine.”
“interesting*, heterogeneous topics, from scientific matters to style and origin stories. Complex yet easy to read and understand. Awesome features, beautiful style and just the perfect companion for a nice cup of coffee!”
“No hay muchas publicaciones en papel dedicadas al café y las actividades humanas a su alrededor. Standart ocupa con autoridad ese espacio con una propuesta de temas propia y original. Añade un estilo gráfico influido por el arte y la entrega de muestras de café para agregar aroma y sabor al aspecto visual.”
“I look forward to reading every edition of the magazine; every section is insightful and inspires the coffee aficionado to look out for more and travel to the locations in the articles.”
“I love how educational it is for all coffee-lovers of every form. I learn so much and geek out about my new-found coffee knowledge to my friends, coworkers and family. Honestly, every article/page is a good read.”
“I love the magazine. Fantastis. Customer service is a not as good. Takes longer than a week for single responses and I have had to email for every single issue to get it delivered.”
