The Best Coffee Blogs of 2016

The Ultimate Up-to-Date Guide of Coffee Blogs

Market Inspector is proudly presenting the most successful, innovative, inspirational, vividly written and visually elegant coffee blogs of 2016. After an exhaustive research of the world wide web we can announce our selection for the best of the best.

Three stages of evaluation, four weeks, and 20 litres of consumed coffee later, the ultimate up-to-date guide of coffee blogs is ready, so let’s get started.

The awards for “The Best Coffee Blogs of 2016” are divided into five subcategories, as follows:

  1. The Most Stylish Coffee Blogs
  2. The Most Influential Coffee Blogs
  3. The Best Coffee Review Blogs
  4. The Most Informative Coffee Blogs
  5. The Best Blogs by Coffee Companies

The selection was hard and the classification even harder, while most of the coffee blogs could potentially be in two, three or even four different lists. In addition, we have to clarify that we included several websites in our list even though they are not self-defined as blogs. The main reason for this decision was the personalised characteristics of these webpages.

The Most Stylish Coffee Blogs

The most stylish coffee blogs

The first category contains coffee blogs with an artistic character, cases with exceptionally creative content and great web-design. Of course, this does not undermine the writing content of these webpages, but rather highlights their flawless aesthetic or their imaginative approach.


The Coffeetographer – Chermelle D. Edwards

The Coffeetographer – Chermelle D. Edwards

It is definitely one website (or “webzine” as it is self-defined) that meets the highest aesthetic expectations. Even though it is not a blog, we thought that it deserves to be on our list because of its strong personal signature. Chermelle has created a unique artistic design platform that treats coffee as the starting point of a cultural inspiration that goes far beyond coffee itself. As she claims in her quote, “More than coffee. Coffee is culture”.

What to find: Coffee editorials, great interactive photos, film, travel, fashion and music posts.

This space is not an ordinary listicle of where to go in coffee and culture. Instead it is a place of highly curated culture, images of people and coffee and structures itself as a vehicle for communing, cultural anthropology and the connection economy.” – Chermelle D. Edwards

CRS Coffeelands

CRS Coffeelands

CRS Coffeelands does an amazing job both as an organisation and as a website. Without a second though, their work is worth mentioning and communicating in every possible way. Their actions are not just following the work “ethics” but far beyond that; they are closely collaborating with smallholder coffee farmers, and they are promoting equality in the coffee industry through many means. Last but not least, they also have a really interesting blog that deserves your attention.

What to find: Content that comes from their contact with the farmers and farmer organisations, posts derived from interactions with other actors in specialty coffee chains.

We are trying to pull back the curtain on the secret lives of coffee farmers and farmworkers so that everyone concerned about the future of specialty coffee chains better understands the complex realities of life in the coffeelands, where we live and work everyday. Our hope is that by shedding a little light on the dramas that play themselves out here every day in coffee-growing communities, this blog might contribute in some small way to the continued movement of the coffee industry toward more sustainable sourcing practices, or increase the appreciation among the global tribe of specialty coffee addicts for the beverage that enriches our lives and the farmers who grow it.” – CRS Coffeelands website.

Phil & Sebastian Coffee Roasters

Phil & Sebastian Coffee Roasters

Phil and Sebastian, two friends from university, have created a great company, website, and of course, blog. Their story, the way that they externalise their own experiences on this path towards success grabbed our attention and played a catalytic role for our decision to include them in the 2016 list. Last but not least, their “About Us” section is probably the coolest we have ever seen.

What to find: Company’s news, coffee events, reports of their trips in coffee origins.

I don’t think either Phil or I are entirely sure about what the future holds. What we do know is that for both of us this has always been a labour of love. We’re engineers and coffee lovers first, and businesspeople second. Along the way the bumps on the road have taught us to keep an eye towards sustainability, but for the most part our focus is where it’s been since day one, creating great coffee and sharing it with folks that appreciate it. Despite our growing business we still get to spend an inordinate amount of time being coffee nerds, which is exactly how we like it.” – Sebastian Sztabzyb
