Pioneering Parisian Coffee: Belleville Brûlerie's Sweet Revolution

Born from the vision of Parisian specialty coffee pioneers David Flynn (Télescope) and Thomas Lehoux (Ten Belles), Belleville Brûlerie ignited a quiet revolution, championing high-quality filter coffee in a city traditionally devoted to espresso. Their roasting philosophy is a testament to each bean's inherent potential, focusing on highlighting natural sweetness and unique characteristics rather than adhering to a rigid style.

This dedication extends to their long-term, direct-trade relationships with producers, like the Moreno family in Honduras, ensuring exceptional quality from farm to cup.Belleville's commitment to excellence was recognized when one of their signature blends clinched first place at Milan's prestigious Roast Masters competition. They excel in crafting unique "assemblages" – blends designed to explore new flavor dimensions that can even surpass single-origin coffees.

Their café, La Fontaine de Belleville, beautifully marries tradition with innovation, preserving the charm of a classic Parisian sidewalk café while serving modern specialty coffee. With public cupping workshops on Saturdays and a meticulous approach to consistency, including weighing every espresso shot, Belleville Brûlerie truly democratizes specialty coffee, making it approachable and delightful for all.
