Standart Issue 41 is a joyful celebration of coffee, creativity, and curiosity. As an award-winning print magazine dedicated to the beauty of coffee, Standart continues to spotlight some of the brightest minds in the global coffee community—this time with a renewed embrace of playfulness and delight. Vim, whimsy, and honest enjoyment run through this issue, reminding us that fun isn’t frivolous—it’s how we connect, experiment, and stay curious. As Editor-in-Chief Luke puts it, play invites us to ask “What happens if I try this?” rather than worrying about doing things perfectly. Inside, you’ll meet an inspiring cast of voices from across food and coffee culture, including chef Andy Hearnden, Head of Coffee at Noma Carolyne Lane, latte art standout Emilee Bryant, alongside Kosta Kallivrousis, Charlesr Nick, Rachel Naismith, Bas van Est, Rafael Sans, Carl Meer, Sabine, Noa Berger, and the team at The Miners Coffee. Standart #41 is an invitation to reconnect with the pleasure of coffee—through people, ideas, and moments of unashamed delight.
