✧ Drift ✧

Language types: English, Chinese

Standartmag.com

A team of three, traveling to major coffee cities in the world, interviewing writers, photographers, bean bakers, baristas, etc. People from various industries, from the perspective of coffee culture, deeply analyze the relationship between people and coffee in each city.

Coffee daily has evolved into a global urbanized way of life.

DRIFT is from the Independent Coffee Community Culture Magazine in New York. Without any advertisements, the article has a lot of wonderful and solid content. From the perspective of coffee culture, it explores the history, community and crowd stories closely related to coffee in each city.

The original intention of the magazine is that everyone will know more about the people of a city by knowing the coffee culture of the city.

The founder of DRIFT once said, "everyone can always make one or two good cups of coffee once in a while, but it's hard to maintain the same level all the time."

The most interesting thing about coffee is that each enthusiast has different habits. Some people will buy expensive equipment and make a cup of coffee full of ritual, while others only need one cup of instant coffee a day.

Coffee is closely related to the lives of many people and brings many aspects of life in the world.

DRIFT hopes to see through the unique side of people's lives through coffee, which has always been the original intention of the publication.

Now that I've introduced coffee magazines, I'd like to recommend some coffee books here.

In the world of coffee, books are also essential. Whether coffee lovers, enthusiasts, beginners, or baristas, coffee shop owners, coffee industry workers, want to have a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of coffee, a few good books are essential.

Compared with the current events of coffee magazines, the important thing about coffee books is that the knowledge is more enduring and intriguing. Having said that, Coffee's worldview is not immutable, and many of the views and concepts popular in the author's writing at that time may have lagged behind or been overturned. Therefore, the list of coffee books should also keep pace with the times.
