Porto Rico Importing Co.

Body sized bags and bags of beans line the floor of this Greenwich Village gem. The equivalent of stepping into an old, classic Italian deli, you just know you're about to get the good stuff. The smell alone is enough to put a pep in your step. Though if you can still stand to grab a cup, don't be shy - travel the globe and sample something from every corner of the world. Build up to the rare and special blends.
