Porto Rico Importing Co.

Veteran coffee seller that specialises in international brews loose teas, and a wide selection.

The aroma of freshly roasted beans fills the air once you walk into this West Village shop. The shelves are lined with jars, sacks and dark brown beans, with coffee-making equipment, tea accessories and sugar.

Originally opened in 1907, Porto Rico was founded by Italian immigrant Patsy Albanese. Greenwich Village at the time was witnessing an influx of Italian immigrants, who opened businesses to satisfy their culinary needs. Albanese named the shop after the popular Puerto Rican Coffee she imported and sold - a drink that was so famous in the moment that the Pope would drink it.

Porto Rico offers 130 different kinds of beans, including beans from all over the world in three locations, including Bleecker Street, Essex Market, and online. Porto Rico also roasts its own beans and provides wholesale distribution to 350 restaurants in NYC and Brooklyn.

Sey Coffee

It is located on Grattan Street in Morgantown, Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood, Sey Coffee is both an espresso bar and a coffee roaster. Co-founders Tobin Polk and Lance Schnorenberg, both 33 started roasting in a fourth-floor loft just around the corner from their new store in 2011 under the name Lofted Coffee (with local clients including Greenpoint's Budin and Soho cart service Peddler).

Sey's decision to buy micro-lots, or even whole harvests from single farmers has earned it the acclaim of New York City coffee enthusiasts. Last year, Sey purchased a six-bag micro lot of Danilo Dones Sitio Catucai from Brazil's Espirito Santa region. The beans were picked at their peak ripeness, floated to remove defects and then dried fermented for 36 hours prior to being dried on the farm. The result is a coffee that is a little fruit and melon.

Sey's commitment extends beyond its shop to improve the overall well-being of staff and farmers, and customers. It utilizes composts and biodegradable disposables to keep waste out of the garbage dumps. This helps reduce greenhouse gases as well as nourish the soil. It also eliminates gratuity, which places baristas in the position to sustain their livelihoods as well as encourage them to focus on their art.

La Cabra

La Cabra is a modern specialty coffee company founded in Aarhus, Denmark in 2012. The company started with a modest store and a dedicated team. Their honesty and ingenuity to delivering an extraordinary coffee experience has earned them a following not only in their home town, but globally.

La Carba follows a strict procedure to identify their ideal beans. They search through hundreds of varieties every year to find the ones that best match their ideals. They then roast them very lightly, adjusting their desired flavor profile. This gives the coffees more vibrant taste and clarity.

The East Village store, which was opened in October of last year it has been praised for its top-quality pour-overs as well as its baked goods, which are overseen by Jared Sexton. He previously worked at Bien Cuit, Dominique Ansel, and other Cherry Storm No. 17: Premium Arabica Coffee Blend establishments.

The shop utilizes the La Marzocco modbar and the cups and plates are designed by Wurtz ceramics in Horsens, a father and son studio. In a recent interview with Atlanta Coffee Shops, General Manager Ian Walla reveals that La Cabra serves approximately 250 different types of coffees each year, and usually has seven or eight coffees available at any given time.

The Plant Coffee Roasting Plant Coffee

The Roasting Plant is a multi-unit coffee retailer roasts and brews coffee on-site. Each cup is roasted and brewed according to your preferences in less than a second. It searches countries far and wide for the highest-grade specialty beans, which are directly sourced providing customers with choice and high-quality.

The roaster they have on site is a fluid bed device, which is different from the traditional drum machines commonly found in UK coffee shops. The beans are blown around in a heated container by high-speed air, which keeps the green beans suspended and allows them to be roasted in a steady manner when they pass through the machine.

I tried the Sumatran coffee and it was rich with smooth mouthfeel, dark chocolate aromas were present and the coffee started to cool down as you sipped the coffee. The subtle scents of citrus fruit were evident.

The roasted coffee will be transferred to the Eversys Super-Automatic Brewing Machines, and brewed to your specifications within less than a minute. Customers can select from nine single origin selections and a wide range of blends.

Parlor Coffee

Parlor Coffee was founded in 2012 behind a barbershop, with a single group espresso machine. It has since morphed into a flourishing coffee roastery, whose beans are sold in top cafes restaurants, cafes, and home brewers across the city. Parlor is dedicated to sourcing high-quality beans from across the globe Each one has endured a laborious journey before getting into the hands of its roasters.

According to their own words the owners "have an unrelenting passion for craft and a conviction that good coffee should be accessible to everyone." They achieve that with their down-to-earth street space, which includes compost bins, chalkboards handmade up-cycled products, and a simple deco.

They roast and brew their own blends and single-origins (there were six when I was there), but they also have cuppings on Sundays that are open to the public. Think of it like a tasting room for breweries. You can smell and taste the ground beans, from chocolaty to earthy (one was very tomato-like!). They're off the beaten path and worthwhile to visit.
