Founded in 2022, Synapse Torréfaction is a Parisian micro roastery that splits its operations between a roasting atelier in the Cour Damoye near Bastille and a coffee shop at 2 Rue du Fer à Moulin in the Latin Quarter's 5th arrondissement. The shop opened its doors in May 2023, giving the young brand a public face to complement its production space. The name evokes neural connections, fitting for a roastery that emphasizes the intellectual and sensory dimensions of specialty coffee. Workshops and educational programming are central to their mission, inviting customers to engage with coffee at a deeper level than the typical cafe experience. Despite being one of Paris's newer roasting operations, Synapse has quickly carved out a niche among drinkers who value precision and transparency in their cup.
