Devoción

Since 2006 · Steven Sutton

Overview

Devoción was launched in 2006 by Medellín-born Steven Sutton, who runs his own dry mill in Bogotá and air-freights green coffee to Brooklyn — origin to cup in as little as 10 days, faster than any other U.S. roaster. The company sources exclusively from Colombia, partners with 1,000+ producers, and is a certified B Corporation.

Known for

  • Origin-to-cup in as little as 10 days via Bogotá dry mill plus air freight
  • Exclusively Colombian — single-origin focus from 1,000+ producer partners
  • Williamsburg flagship at 69 Grand Street with skylight and tropical living wall
  • Certified B Corporation
  • 25kg Probat visible from the street at Williamsburg roastery

Why it matters

Devoción is built on a thesis no other U.S. roaster has tried at scale: that freshness of green coffee from harvest to roast is as important as roast quality itself, and that the only way to control it is to own the entire supply chain end to end. The 10-day origin-to-cup time stands as the industry's most aggressive freshness benchmark.
