Five Brooklyn Coffee Bean Shops

If you're a fan of coffee You'll want to check out a coffee bean shop. These stores offer a wide assortment of whole beans from all across the globe. They also offer unique trinkets and kitchenware.

Some of these shops offer subscriptions for their coffee beans. Some shops offer these in bulk.

Porto Rico Importing Co.

Veteran coffee vendor who is a specialist in international brews, loose teas and a variety.

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

The first restaurant opened in 1907, Porto Rico was founded by Italian immigrant Patsy Albanese. At the time, Greenwich Village was seeing an increasing number of Italian immigrants who established businesses to serve their culinary needs. Albanese named the shop after the popular Puerto Rican Coffee she imported and sold - a drink that was so popular at the moment, even the Pope would drink it.

Today, Porto Rico sells 130 varieties of beans from all over the globe at three locations in New York City including their Bleecker Street location, Essex Market and online. The company also roasts its own beans and offers wholesale distribution to 350 restaurants in NYC and Brooklyn.

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

Sey Coffee

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

Sey's decision to buy coffee beans near me micro-lots, and even whole harvests, from single farmers has earned it the respect of New York City coffee enthusiasts. Last year they made a 6-bag micro-lot purchase of Danilo Dones Sitio Catucai 785 from Brazil's Espirito Santo region. The beans were picked at their peak of ripeness and steamed to remove any defects. They were then dried on the farm after a 36-hour dry fermentation. The result is a blend with hints of the melon and berry.

Sey's goal of holistically improving the well-being of staff, growers and customers extends beyond the walls of the shop. It utilizes biodegradable disposables as well as composts, keeping waste out of landfills and converting it to agents that reduce harmful greenhouse gases and nourish soil. It also eliminates gratuity. This lets baristas concentrate on their craft and earn a living.

La Cabra

La Cabra, a modern specialty coffee company, was established in Aarhus in Denmark in 2012. The company started with a modest store and a team of dedicated employees. Their honest and creative approach to delivering an extraordinary coffee experience has earned their acclaim not just in their hometown, but globally.

La Carba has a rigorous method of identifying their ideal beans, by scouring through hundreds of different varieties every year to locate the ones that match their ideals. They roast them lightly, adjusting their desired flavor profile. This gives the coffees a more intense flavor and clarity.

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

The shop uses a La Marzocco Modbar and the cups plates and bowls are made by Wurtz ceramics, a father/son studio in Horsens. In a recent interview, Atlanta Coffee Shops General Manager Ian Walla revealed that La Cabra serves 250 different coffees every day, and has usually seven or eight coffees available at any given time.

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 brewed and roasted according to your specifications in less than a second. It scour the globe for the highest-grade specialty beans that are sourced directly offering customers a choice and quality.

The on-site roaster employs fluid bed technology which is quite different from the drum-type machines commonly found in most UK coffee shops. The beans are blown about in the heated box by high-speed air which keeps the beans in a suspended state and allows roasting to happen at a consistent rate when they pass through the machine.

I tried the Sumatran coffee and it was delicious with a an enveloping mouthfeel, dark chocolate aroma was evident and the coffee began to cool as you sip the coffee. The subtle scents of citrus fruit were evident.

The coffee is transported to the store's Eversys super-automatic brewing machines and you can have your coffee brewed to your specifications in under a minute. Customers can select from nine single origins as well as different blends.

Parlor Coffee

Parlor Coffee was founded in 2012 behind a barbershop, with a single group espresso machine. It has since developed to become a burgeoning roastery, with beans that are available in top cafes restaurants, cafes, and home brewers across the city. Parlor Coffee is committed to procuring the highest-quality beans, that have all been through a long journey before reaching its roasters.

The owners, who self-described as "passionate about craft and believe that a good cup of coffee should be available to everyone," have created a environment that is simple with chalkboards, compost bins and up-cycled items, and simple decor.

They roast and create their own blends and single-origins (there were six when I was there) Also, they offer cuppings on Sundays, which are open to the public. Imagine it as a brewery tasting room, where you can smell and taste the beans in the ground. They range from earthy to chocolatey (one was similar to tomato!). It's a little off the beaten path, but worth the journey.
