Porto Rico Importing Co. on our Central Village/ Soho Tour carries two types of coffee that are far from the stuff your grandma used to brew.

Monsoon Malabar is an especially smooth coffee. The harvested beans are exposed to the monsoon rains of India’s Malabar Coast for six weeks. This process causes the beans to swell and loose some of their acidity creating a perfectly smooth brew.
