If you asked me what I like the most in the coffee industry, my answer would be simple – diversity. There is a nearly infinite number of combinations of origin, type, roastery and brewing method. All that makes a coffee enthusiast unable to say: Ok, I’ve drunk it all!

Below you can find a short, entirely subjective list of profiles worth checking. It can be a source of not only your daily coffee inspiration, but also fantastic shots. If you like quality coffee as much as great photography, beware, you may end up scrolling for hours!
