Devoción

Devoción in Williamsburg redefines specialty coffee with its farm-to-cup ethos and immersive Colombian atmosphere. This light-filled sanctuary at 69 Grand St combines industrial charm with tropical warmth, featuring exposed brick walls, leather sofas, and a striking two-story vertical garden filled with 150 Colombian coffee plants[1][3].

The Freshness Revolution
As Brooklyn’s first coffee roaster to serve beans roasted just 10 days post-harvest, Devoción bypasses the industry standard of aging beans for 6-12 months[1][2]. Their direct-trade model sources from Colombian family farms, with beans dry-milled in Bogotá before FedEx delivery to their Williamsburg roastery[1]. Patrons watch the roasting process through gallery windows while inhaling aromas of freshly processed Castillo and Caturra varietals[1].

Signature Experience
The space masterfully blends functionality and storytelling:

• A laboratory visible behind the counter where baristas test roast profiles
• Cement tile floors echoing Colombian finca architecture
• All-day menu featuring velvety flat whites and seasonal single-origin pour-overs[1][4]
• Weekend crowds debating the merits of Huila vs. Nariño region microlots

Beyond the Cup
As a B Corp certified business, Devoción prioritizes sustainable partnerships with growers[4]. The tropical microclimate created by lush foliage and 18-foot windows transforms coffee breaks into mini escapes, earning it the nickname "Brooklyn’s caffeine oasis" among regulars[3][5].
