A Miami coffee guide

Specialty Coffee Shops

This is the third-wave list: shops that roast their own beans, run a pour-over bar, or source single origins they can tell you about. If you care where the cup came from, start here.

How a shop gets in: A shop makes this guide when our visit documented a specialty program — in-house roasting, single-origin sourcing, or a real pour-over menu.
