Starbucks Coffee Academy
A Journey of Discovery: One Cup at a Time
Together with Starbucks coffee experts and Touch Worldwide Producers, I was invited to join the team bringing Starbucks Coffee Academy to life.
The brief called for a 150-page manual introducing partners to the world of coffee, and it was my role to drive engagement with a thoughtful series of content-supporting illustrations.
The 100, 200, and 300 Academy volumes are born of dedication to craft coffee, and aim to support Starbucks partners and baristas as they journey into the world of Coffea arabica. In each volume, the illustrations are partnered with world-class photography and sleek design to deepen a reader's connection to coffee as an art form.
It Begins With a Tiny Coffee Bean
The first of a multi-volume series, Coffee Academy Level 100 presents a broad overview of coffee brewing and cultivation for those just beginning their coffee education journey.
It touches on coffee-growing origins, principles of roasting and tasting, finding your way around an espresso machine, and basic drink recipes.
