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

Originally 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 set up businesses to meet their culinary needs. Albanese named her shop after the well-known Puerto Rican coffee she imported (and sold) - a beverage that was so well-known at the time that even the Pope consumed it.

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

Peter Longo, the current owner and president of the company was raised above his family's bakery located on Bleecker Street where his father was the owner of Porto Rico. He continues to operate the shop in a similar way as his father and grandfather.

Sey Coffee

The shop is located along 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 the fourth-floor loft just 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 reliance on micro-lots -- or even whole harvests from single farmers earned it the respect of the most discerning New York City coffee aficionados. Last year, Sey purchased a six-bag micro lot of Danilo Dones Sitio Catucai from Brazil's Espirito Santo region. The beans were picked at their peak of ripeness and floated to remove any imperfections. They were then dried on the farm following a 36-hour dry fermentation. The result is a blend with hints of berry, lemongrass, and melon.

Sey's mission extends beyond the shop to improve the overall well-being of growers and staff, and customers. It makes use of biodegradable plastics and composts, keeping waste out of garbage and converting it into substances that reduce harmful greenhouse gases and nourish soil. It also does away with gratuity, which puts the baristas in a position to support their livelihoods and encourage them to focus on their profession.

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 innovative approach to providing an outstanding unroasted coffee beans wholesale experience has earned them a devoted following not just in their home town but all over the world.

La Carba has a rigorous process for finding their perfect beans, going through hundreds of different varieties every year to find ones that are perfect for their tastes. They roast them lightly, adjusting their desired flavor profile. This results in more clarity and a better taste.

The East Village store opened last October with a sleek and minimalist style, 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 uses the La Marzocco modbar, and the cups and plates are made by Wurtz ceramics in Horsens, which is a father-son studio. In a recent Q&A interview with Atlanta Coffee Shops, General Manager Ian Walla reveals that La Cabra serves about 250 different coffees per year, and typically has seven or eight varieties on offer at any given point.

It scour countries far and across the globe for the highest-quality specialty beans that are directly sourced that provide customers with a choice and quality.

The roaster they have on site is a fluid bed device, which is different from the traditional drum machines found in UK coffee shops. The beans are blown about in a heated box by high-velocity air which keeps the beans suspended and allows roasting to happen at a consistent rate as they travel through the machine.

I tried the Sumatran coffee beans to buy and it was rich with an enveloping mouthfeel, dark chocolate aroma was present and the coffee started to cool while you sipped, subtle flavours of citrus fruit were detected.

The roasted coffee will then be taken to the Eversys Super-Automatic Brewing Machines and brewed according to your preferences in less than one minute. Customers can choose from nine single origins as well as a variety blends.

According to their own words, they "have an unrelenting passion for craft and a conviction that good coffee should be available to everyone." They accomplish this with their earthy area on a residential street. Think compost bins, chalkboard welcome handmade up-cycled items, and a simple deco.

They light roast coffee beans and create their own blends as well as single-origins (there were six when I was there), but they also have cuppings on Sundays that are open to the public. Imagine it as a tasting room where you can smell and taste the ground beans. They range from earthy to chocolatey (one was similar to tomato!). They're off the beaten path but are worthwhile to visit.
