One of Bangkok’s hottest coffee spots, Factory Coffee was founded in 2013 by Srettakarn ‘Bew’ Veerakultevon, with a vision to connect baristas, roasters, farmers, and coffee lovers through a shared love for specialty coffee. Guided by Bew, Thailand’s Barista Champion in 2020, the establishment remains true to its roots, driven by baristas at heart — a spirit that continues to inspire every cup.

This Seoul-based specialty roaster has been bringing together creativity and craft since 2020. With the founders’ roots in music, design and coffee, they source thoughtfully and roast with precision for delicious cups, while creating a fun and witty coffee culture unique to their identity.

Embracing a mindful approach to one’s daily brew, Earthshake redefines the regular coffee experience with functional mushrooms and adaptogens that support focus, clarity and recovery — without the crash and jitters often associated with caffeine. Their capsule line combines 100% organic coffee with powerful ingredients such as Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, and Reishi, thoughtfully crafted to support overall wellness. Driven by the discovery of these natural ingredients and a rigorous R&D process, the company is on a mission to deliver functional, flavourful and sustainable alternatives to conventional coffee.

‘Coffee with conviction’ — UK-based NewGround is as bold as their motto implies, believing in pushing boundaries and never settling for the ordinary. Founded in 2018, this coffee brand combines a passion for expertly crafted coffee with a deep commitment to social responsibility. Their coffees are ethically sourced, ensuring only high-grade coffee beans from small-scale farms around the world, while each batch is expertly roasted in-house to reveal new exciting flavours every time. The B Corp Certified company is also dedicated to using their business as a force for good, by providing work and training opportunities for ex-offenders in the UK, empowering individuals in this often overlooked community with the chance of a fresh start.
