Russia strikes Ukraine's largest drip coffee producer — photos
As a result of a ballistic missile attack on Kyiv overnight into Oct. 25, the production facilities of the coffee brand Idealist Coffee were destroyed, the company reported on Facebook, releasing photos of the strike's aftermath.
"The overnight ballistic attack by rascist terrorists brought further destruction to our production facilities," the statement said.
“The real state of affairs and recovery timelines are currently unknown. We apologize in advance to our customers and partners for delays and forced unpunctuality.”
According to the company's website, Idealist Coffee & Co is the largest drip coffee producer in Ukraine.
The company was founded in 2019 by Sergii Koretsky. Until October 2018, he served as CEO of the WOG gas station network. From November 2022 to May 2025, he held positions as director of PJSC Ukrnafta and JSC Ukrtatnafta, and currently heads the board of NAC Naftogaz Ukraine.
On Aug. 28, 2025, Idealist Coffee & Co's coffee roasting production suffered a Russian strike, but operations were quickly restored at that time.
