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.
