Suplicy Cafés Especiais’s self-proclaimed mission is to serve the best possible coffee and, my goodness, do they ever fulfil their promise.

The single origin espresso—the single malts of the coffee world—comes from Pulped Natural, Yellow Icatú, Fazenda Santa Izabel, Ouro Fino and Minas Gerais. Suplicy Cafés Especiais also offers several more types of single origin beans, which it only sells or blends upon request.

The Jardins café is a businesslike place: the highly professional staff dresses in uniform. Perhaps not ideal for a long, relaxed afternoon with friends, but perfect for a quick pick-me-up over a magazine or email-session using Suplicy’s free wi-fi. And the coffee is divine.
