Dear coffee lovers,

Last week was a big one for F1 fans! The Cadillac Formula 1 Team finally announced their driver lineup for the 2026 season: Checo Pérez and Valtteri Bottas. Adding to the buzz, Racing Bulls rookie Isack Hadjar claimed his first F1 podium with a third-place finish at the Dutch Grand Prix in Zandvoort.

The September issue of GQ includes a must-read feature: Inside the Top Secret Virgil Abloh Archive, a deep dive into the late designer’s catalog of unreleased work. The archive reveals early plans for a “secret line” with Louis Vuitton, a prototype Prada Linea Rossa x Nike collaboration, and more. It’s a fascinating look at the many eras of Virgil’s career and his inspiring ideas for future projects.

Now, time for Weekly Roasts! For our new coffee picks, we have a clean, washed Kenyan field blend from Luna Coffee in Vancouver, Canada, and a vibrant, washed watermelon co-fermented Colombian from Presta Coffee Roasters in Arizona, USA. Let’s dive in! 👀
