Porto Rico, originally opened in 1907 by Italian immigrant Patsy Albonese. At the time, Greenwich Village was seeing an influx of Italian immigrants who set up establishments to cater to their dietary requirements. Albanese named her shop after the famous Puerto Rican coffee she imported (and sold) - a beverage so popular that even the Pope was a fan.

Today, Porto Rico sells 130 varieties of beans from around the world at three locations in New York City including their Bleecker Street location, Essex Market and online. Porto Rico also roasts their own beans and provides wholesale distribution to 350 restaurants in NYC, Brooklyn and Brooklyn.

Peter Longo, current owner and president, was raised in the family bakery on Bleecker Street, where his father ran Porto Rico. He still runs the shop in a similar way as his father and grandfather.

Sey Coffee

Sey Coffee, a coffee shop and roaster located on Grattan Street, in Morgantown. This neighborhood in Brooklyn's Bushwick district is situated on Grattan Street. Co-founders Tobin Polk and Lance Schnorenberg, both 33 began roasting in a fourth-floor loft across the street from their new location in 2011 under the name Lofted Coffee (with local clients including Greenpoint's Budin and Soho cart service Peddler).

Sey's commitment to buying micro-lots, and even whole harvests, from single farmers has earned it the acclaim of New York City coffee enthusiasts. In the past, they made a six-bag micro-lot purchase of Danilo Dones Sitio Catucai 785 from Brazil's Espirito Santo region. The beans were harvested when they were ripe and floated to remove any defects. They were then dried on the farm after a 36-hour dry fermentation. The result is a blend that is fragrant with hints of the melon and berry.

Sey's dedication to holistically improving the quality of life for staff, growers and customers extends beyond the store. It makes use of composts and biodegradable plastics to keep waste out of the landfills. This helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and also nourish the soil. It also removes gratuities. This lets baristas focus on their craft and help sustain their livelihoods.

La Cabra

La Cabra is a modern specialty coffee company founded in Aarhus, Denmark in 2012. It began with a tiny shop and a dedicated team. Their honest and innovative approach to providing an exceptional coffee experience earned them a following not only in their own town but all over the world.

La Carba follows a strict method to select their best beans. They scour through hundreds of varieties every year in order to find the ones that best match their ideals. Then, they roast them in a light manner, dialing them in to achieve their desired flavor profile. This results in more clarity and a better taste.

The East Village store, which opened in October last year and has been praised by critics for its premium pour-overs and baked goods, which are overseen by Jared Sexton. He previously worked at Bien Cuit, Dominique Ansel and various coffee houses.

The shop is equipped with a La Marzocco Modbar, and the cups, plates and bowls are made by Wurtz ceramics, a father and son studio in Horsens. In a recent interview with Atlanta Coffee Shops General Manager Ian Walla revealed that La Cabra serves 250 different types of coffee per day and usually has seven or eight different varieties available at any given moment.

The Plant Coffee Roasting Plant Coffee

The Roasting Plant A multi-unit retailer of coffee, roasts and brews the coffee on site. Each cup is roasted and brewed according to your specifications in less than one second. It searches far and far for the finest quality specialty beans, which are directly sourced that provide customers with a choice and quality.

Their roaster on site is a fluid bed machine which is different from classic drum machines used in UK coffee shops. The beans are blown inside an enclosed box that is heated and has high-speed air that is circulated. This keeps the beans suspended and allows for a consistent roasting speed.

I tried the Sumatran coffee and it was delicious with a a velvety mouthfeel, dark chocolate scent was present, and the coffee began to cool down as you sipped, subtle flavours of citrus fruit were detected.

The coffee that has been roasted is transported to the store's Eversys super-automatic brewing systems and the coffee is brewed according to your preferences in under a minute. Customers can choose from nine single origins as well as several blends.

Parlor Coffee

The company was founded in 2012 at the back of a barbershop that had an espresso machine that was single-group, Parlor Coffee has become a growing roastery, whose beans can be found in top restaurants, cafes and home brewers in the city. Parlor Coffee is dedicated to sourcing only the highest-quality beans, which have gone through a long journey before arriving at its roasters.

The owners, who are self-described as "passionate about craft and believe that great coffee should be accessible to everyone," have created a space that is down-to earth with chalkboards, compost bins, up-cycled hand-made products, and minimal decor.

They roast their own blends (there were six at the time I was there) and single-origins, but they also host cuppings on Sundays that are open to the public. Imagine it as the tasting room of a brewery. You can smell and taste the ground beans, ranging from chocolaty to earthy (one was very tomato-like!). It's a bit off the beaten track, but it's worth the drive.
