Our story

Coffee is a craft.
We treat it like one.

Aura began in 2019 as a single slow-bar counter in Brooklyn. Six years later, we roast weekly, source direct from four countries, and still pour every cup like it's the only one that matters.

Sourced with intent

Sourced with intent

Every lot is traced to a named farm or co-op. We pay above Fairtrade minimums and visit our partners at origin each year.

Roasted in small batches

12kg batches, twice weekly, profiled separately for espresso and filter so every brew method gets its due.

Designed for lingering

Designed for lingering

Soft plaster, brushed brass, acoustic felt dyed to the walls. A room built to be sat in, not rushed through.

Held to a standard

Dose, grind, and extraction are checked cup by cup — every shift, every barista, every single pour.

A small team, obsessed with the details.
