Coffee is poetry in a cup.
We’re a family coffee roastery from a small city of Levice with a passion for poetry. Our goal is to introduce the beauty of all the different flavors coffee has to people who haven’t had a chance to discover it yet. That is why we thoroughly choose high-quality coffee beans from farms all around the world and roast it with love so that its natural taste unfolds. We take it as our mission to make peoples’ days better and leave them with pleasure from each cup of coffee. That is why we add an original poem written by us to each of our packages to improve their day.
Our priority is the selection of interesting beans, freshness, and love with which we approach this commodity. We roast the coffee in small amounts so that each package of our coffee has its personal approach, passion, and its own story.

Publika is a space for opinions and discussion. We are a platform for texts and videos about current events, whether in politics, society or culture.

We believe that ideas shape the world and our current age of social media doesn’t allow for quality debate. That is why we decided to enter the Slovak media market with an innovative format that allows people with diverse backgrounds to present their ideas and opinions.

We don’t limit ourselves with just presenting ideas – we strive to explain them and help people better understand the opinions of others.

We started back in 2018 as cejndz.sk, where we published analyses and comments of events happening both in Slovakia and around the world. We have decided to rebrand in 2020 and create a space for more available formats. We are Publika – a space for modern discourse.
