Porto Rico Importing Co.

Veteran coffee seller specializing in international brews as well as a range of loose teas

The aroma of freshly roasted beans fills the air when you enter this West Village shop. The shelves are filled with jars and bags of dark brown beans, with tea-making equipment, coffee accessories and sugar.

Porto Rico, originally opened in 1907 by Italian immigrants Patsy Albonese. At the time, Greenwich Village was seeing an increasing number of Italian immigrants who had opened businesses to meet their culinary needs. Albanese named her shop after the well-known Puerto Rican strong coffee beans she imported (and sold) the beverage was so popular that even the Pope consumed it.

Porto Rico offers 130 different varieties of beans, which includes those from around the globe in three locations, including Bleecker Street, Essex Market, and online. Porto Rico roasts their own beans and provides wholesale distribution to 350 restaurants in NYC, Brooklyn and Brooklyn.

Peter Longo, the current owner and president of the company was raised on the top floor of the bakery of his family located on Bleecker Street where his father operated Porto Rico. He continues to run the business in the same manner as his grandfather and father.

Sey Coffee

Located along Grattan Street in Morgantown, Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood, Sey Coffee is both an espresso bar and a coffee roaster. Tobin Polk, Lance Schnorenberg and their 33-year-old co-founders started roasting coffee in an apartment on the fourth floor, just around the corner, in 2011. They named it Lofted Coffee. Local clients included Greenpoint's Budin and Soho cart services Peddler and Peddler.

Sey's focus on purchasing micro-lots, or even whole harvests from single farmers--has earned it the respect of highly discerning New York City coffee aficionados. In the past, Sey bought a six-bag micro lot of Danilo Dones Sitio Catucai, a Brazilian gourmet coffee beans from the Espirito-Santo region. The beans were harvested when they were ripe and then floated to eliminate any defects. They were then dried on the farm following a 36-hour dry fermentation. The result is a cup that has hints of fruit and melon.

Sey's focus on holistically improving the health of staff, customers, and growers extends beyond the walls of the shop. It uses biodegradable disposables and composts, keeping waste out of landfills and turning it into agents that lower harmful greenhouse gas emissions and feed the soil. It also reduces gratuity. This allows baristas to concentrate on their craft and help sustain their livelihoods.

La Cabra

La Cabra is a modern specialty coffee company founded in Aarhus, Denmark in 2012. The company began with a small shop and a committed team. Their honest and innovative method of providing an exceptional coffee experience has earned them a devoted following not only in their hometown but also around the world.

La Carba has a rigorous method of identifying their ideal beans, by scouring through hundreds of different lots every year to locate the ones that are perfect for their tastes. They then roast them very lightly, dialing in their desired flavor profile. This results in clearer and more vibrant taste.

The East Village store opened last October with a sleek and minimalist design, and has been praised worldwide by coffee lovers for its meticulous pour overs and baked goods that are overseen by head baker Jared Sexton, who's previously worked at Bien Cuit and Dominique Ansel.

The shop employs a La Marzocco Modbar and the cups, plates and bowls are made by Wurtz ceramics, a father/son studio located in Horsens. In a recent interview with Atlanta Coffee Shops, General Manager Ian Walla reveals that La Cabra serves around 250 different varieties of coffee each year, and usually has seven or eight different varieties available at any given point.

The Roasting Plant Coffee

The Roasting Plant is the only multi-unit retailer of coffee that roasts on site and brews on demand, with each cup of coffee roasting and brewed according to your requirements in less than a minute. It is a search engine for the highest quality specialty beans that are sourced directly offering customers a choices and high quality coffee beans-quality.

The roaster they have on site is a fluid bed machine which is different from traditional drum machines commonly found in UK coffee shops. The beans are blown around in an enclosed box heated by high-speed air, which keeps the green beans in suspension and allows roasting to happen in a steady manner as they travel through the machine.

I tried the Sumatran coffee and it was a rich cup with a velvety mouthfeel, dark chocolate from the fragrance was present and the coffee started to cool as you sipped the coffee. The subtle scents of citrus fruit were evident.

The coffee is then be taken to the store's Eversys Super-Automatic brewing Machines and brewed according your specifications in under a minute. Customers can select from a selection of nine single origin choices 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 grown into a bustling coffee roastery, whose beans are sold in top cafes and restaurants as well as home brewers all over the city. Parlor Coffee is committed to procuring the highest-quality beans, that have all been through a long journey before reaching its roasters.

According to their own words the owners "have an unrelenting love of craft and believe that good coffee should be accessible to everyone." They do just this by putting their home-like space on a residential street--think compost bins, a chalkboard welcome, handmade up-cycled products and a minimally-decorated space.

They roast their own blends (there were six at the time I was there) and single-origins, however they also hold cuppings on Sundays that are open to the general public. Imagine it as a brewery tasting room--you can smell and taste the ground beans, ranging from chocolaty earthy (one was almost tomato-like!). It's a little off the beaten path, but worth the journey.
