MAA x DAK: SWIRL SEASON

Summer 2026, we welcomed back MAA from Seoul for another round of Swirl Season. New flavours, plenty of soft serve, lots of familiar faces and the same relaxed atmosphere that made the first edition so much fun. It was lovely to have Jiwon and Sugyeong back behind the counter, and even nicer to see how many people remembered them from the year before. Hopefully, this becomes a little summer tradition.

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Last year we invited MAA over for a taste of Seoul in Amsterdam. We didn’t expect to walk away with two friends. Jiwon and Sugyeong showed up with more than just soft serve, they brought their craft, their care for texture, and a warmth that filled the whole showroom for a week.

In July 2026, MAA came back to the showroom, and this time we took a completely different approach. Where the first edition was built around the tasting notes of our coffees, the second started from a new creative process altogether. As Sugyeong put it, “It feels like we’re discovering a whole new way to tell the same story.” The flavours: dill, goat cheese parfait and amaretto cherry ice cream.

People had been waiting for this one, because it’s something you can’t find anywhere else in the city. For Sugyeong, the best part was the way both teams worked together: “There was no sense of competition; more a feeling that we were trying to make something good together. We’re creating something with the same heart.”

A big thank you to MAA for making it all the way to Amsterdam again!

Upcoming Events

DAK x ADAM PENDLETON COLLAB

Coffee meets contemporary art. We’re incredibly excited to share a very special collaboration with American artist Adam Pendleton, created to celebrate the opening of his solo exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. To mark the occasion, we’ve created a limited-edition DAK coffee box, bringing a little piece of this collaboration beyond the museum walls and into your daily coffee ritual. The box is available exclusively at two locations: the Stedelijk Museum shop and our DAK showroom in Amsterdam, while stocks last. A pretty special moment for us, and an exhibition you definitely shouldn’t miss. Come discover both! “Some Wild Kind of Language” by artist Adam Pendleton is on view at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam from October 10, 2026, to January 17, 2027.

DAK Book Launch – Paris

Clove has been an important part of our story over the years, and a partner we hold close to our hearts. They even have their own little place in the book, so it only felt natural to celebrate the launch of DAK in Every Sense together in Paris. Join us at Clove for an evening of filter coffees, cocktails (or mocktails), a special pastry made for the occasion, and of course, a chance to discover the book in person. We’ll also be hosting a short, informal book presentation around 6:30–7pm, sharing a little more about the story behind it.
