The beginnings of Right Side Coffee

The story of Right Side Coffee begins humbly yet ambitiously: in the founder's parking lot, with barely enough money for two sacks of green coffee beans. From that starting point, Joaquín Parra set out to build something different within the world of specialty coffee .

His vision from the beginning was clear: to establish direct relationships with producers, learn to import his own coffee without intermediaries, and develop roasting profiles that matched or exceeded the standards of barista competitions.

At a time when specialty coffee was still developing in Spain, Right Side Coffee saw not only a challenge, but an opportunity to innovate and build its own identity from scratch.

The creative side: origin of the name Right Side

The name Right Side Coffee comes directly from its origin: creativity as the driving force. With limited resources, the team decided to be guided by the “right side of the brain,” associated with imagination, intuition, and innovation.

This creative approach has been key to its evolution, especially in the exploration of new fermentation processes , drying methods and roasting profiles that break with the conventional within specialty coffee .

The goal has always been clear: to create coffees that surprise, generate conversation, and bring something different to the specialty coffee scene.

Direct sourcing: relationships with producers and origin

One of Right Side Coffee 's fundamental pillars is its commitment to direct trade . Over the years, they have developed strong relationships with producers in Latin America and Africa , visiting farms and working directly with them and cooperatives.

This approach allows for total control over quality, traceability, and processes, as well as fostering a fairer relationship within the coffee value chain.

Right Side Coffee collaborates with producers ranging from small farmers to winners of the prestigious Cup of Excellence , ensuring access to unique and very high quality coffees within the specialty coffee market .

Innovation in processes: fermentation, drying and new techniques

From its inception, Right Side Coffee has been committed to innovation at the source. Together with producers, they have explored new methods of coffee fermentation and processing, seeking sensory profiles that go beyond the traditional.

This approach has led to the creation of coffees with more complex, expressive and differentiated profiles, positioning the brand as a benchmark within the experimental coffees of specialty coffee .

For BrewFusion consumers, this translates into access to coffees that stand out for their originality, aromatic intensity, and unique character.

Roasting: Tradition and Technology in Balance

Roasting at Right Side Coffee combines tradition and innovation. The brand uses two iconic roasters: a 1993 Probat L12 and a 1959 UG22 , both restored and adapted with modern technology.

This balance between classic machinery and contemporary control allows for the development of extremely precise roasting profiles, highlighting the characteristics of each origin, variety, and process.

The result is clean, complex and balanced coffees, designed for both espresso and filter coffee , and aligned with the highest standards of specialty coffee .

Awards and recognition in the world of coffee

Right Side Coffee 's track record is backed by numerous industry accolades. Joaquín Parra has won multiple SCA national championships, including titles in roasting and barista skills , establishing himself as a key figure in the specialty coffee world.

Furthermore, it has represented Spain in international competitions such as the World Roasting Championship , reinforcing the brand's reputation globally.

This competitive level is directly reflected in the quality of their coffees, which maintain their own competition standards in every batch.

Right Side Coffee in Barcelona: coffee, community and experience

In 2023 , Right Side Coffee took another step forward with the opening of Right Side Coffee Bar in Barcelona. This space allows them to connect directly with consumers, share their vision of coffee, and offer a complete experience centered around specialty coffee .

The coffee shop acts as a meeting point where you can experience coffee as it was intended: from the selection of the bean to the final extraction.

This step reinforces Right Side's position as a comprehensive brand within specialty coffee, not only roasting and importing, but also communicating and experiencing coffee in direct contact with its community.
