Five Brooklyn Coffee Bean Shops

If you're a coffee enthusiast, you should go to a coffee shop. These shops sell a range of whole beans from all over the world. They also sell unique trinkets, kitchenware, and other products.

Some of these shops offer subscriptions to their coffee beans. Some shops sell coffee beans in large quantities.

Porto Rico Importing Co.

Veteran coffee seller that specializes in international brews, loose teas, and a variety.

When you walk into this old-fashioned West Village shop, the scent of freshly roasting beans fills the air. Open bags of dark-brown beans are displayed on the shelves alongside sugar jars coffee-making equipment, tea and other accessories.

Originally opened in 1907, Porto Rico was founded by Italian immigrant Patsy Albanese. At the time, Greenwich Village was seeing an large influx of Italian immigrants who established businesses to meet their culinary needs. Albanese named her shop after the well-known Puerto Rican coffee she imported (and sold) which was so popular that even the Pope was a fan.

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

Peter Longo, current owner and president, grew up in the family bakery on Bleecker Street, where his father ran Porto Rico. He still runs the business in the same fashion as his father did and grandfather.

Sey Coffee

It is located on 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 just around the corner 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 decision to buy micro-lots, or even entire harvests, from single farmers has earned it the respect 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 at the peak of ripeness, and then steamed to eliminate any imperfections. They were then dried on the farm after a 36-hour dry fermentation. The result is a cup with hints of berry lemongrass, and melon.

Sey's focus on holistically improving the wellbeing of staff, growers and customers extends beyond the retail store. It makes use of composts and biodegradable plastics to ensure that waste is kept out of landfills. This helps reduce greenhouse gases and helps nourish the soil. It also does away with gratuity, which puts the baristas in a position to help sustain their livelihoods as well as encourage them to concentrate on their art.

La Cabra

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

La Carba follows a strict process to find their perfect beans. They search through hundreds of varieties every year in order to select the beans that best meet their standards. They roast them lightly, dialing in their desired flavor profile. This gives the coffees more vibrant flavor and clarity.

The East Village store opened last October with a sleek, minimalist style, and has been praised worldwide by coffee lovers for its precise 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 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 Q&A 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 varieties on offer at any given point.

The Roasting Plant 500g coffee beans

The Roasting Plant is the only multi-unit coffee bean company retailer that roasts its own coffee and brews to order, with every cup of coffee roasting and brewed according to your requirements in less than minutes. It searches the globe for the highest rated coffee beans-quality specialty beans that are directly sourced providing customers with choice and quality.

Their onsite roaster is a fluid bed device, which is different from classic drum machines used in UK coffee shops. The beans are blown around the heated box by high-speed air that keeps the beans in a suspended state and allows roasting to happen at a consistent rate throughout the machine.

I tried the Sumatran coffee and it was rich with velvety mouthfeel. Dark chocolate aroma was present, and the coffee began to cool as you sipped and subtle aromas of citrus fruit were evident.

The coffee is transported to the store's Eversys super-automatic brewing systems and you can have your top 10 coffee beans brewed to your specifications in under a minute. Customers can pick from a variety of single origins and a variety of blends.

Parlor Coffee

In 2012, the company was established in the back of a barbershop with a single-group espresso machine, Parlor Coffee has become an energizing roastery whose coffees are found at great cafes, restaurants and home brewers all over the city. Parlor is committed to procuring high-quality coffee beans from across the globe each of which has had to endure a lengthy journey before arriving in the roasters.

The owners, who self-described as "passionate about their craft and believe that a good cup of coffee should accessible to everyone," have created a environment that is simple, with chalkboards, compost bins, up-cycled handmade products, and a minimalist interior.

Imagine it as a tasting area--you can taste and smell the beans that are ground. They range from earthy to chocolatey (one was similar to tomato!). They're a bit away from the main roads, but well worth a trip.
