Syra Coffee

About This Coffee

This coffee originates from the Brunca region in southern Costa Rica, specifically from Pérez Zeledón, cultivated between 1,500 and 1,900 meters above sea level. The coffee is produced by Rafael Marín and Silvia Espinoza at their family estate, which has been in operation for four generations. The lot consists of Catuai and Caturra varieties processed using a semi-washed method. The coffee offers flavor notes of milk chocolate, praline, red fruits, and citrus, with medium acidity and a medium-light body. The Marespi project established its own micro-mill in 2000 and uses hybrid drying that combines solar energy and thermal control. The Crema lot is a careful selection from high-altitude farms within the region, representing outstanding quality and performance.

Syra Coffee

What started in October 2015 as a small specialty space with the goal of popularizing good coffee has expanded into a multi city operation with outposts in Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, and Valencia. Syra roasts at its Barcelona headquarters and ships to all spaces, working directly with small farms around the world who send their harvest at the end of each season. Every coffee is single origin, rated 80 points or above, and sourced from producers who tend their land with integrity and contribute positively to their communities. The guiding principle is less is more: a singular, calm experience shared with as many people as possible. Syra also offers cupping sessions, workshops, and a monthly subscription delivering freshly roasted coffee from the Barcelona roastery. The operation has built a following of over 60,000 on Instagram and become one of Spain's most visible specialty coffee brands.
