The Best Coffee Blend in Spain

On October 1st, International Coffee Day, we had the pleasure of celebrating an extraordinary achievement together with Cafés Puerto Rico: winning First Prize for Best Commercial Blend at the Fórum Coffee Festival held in Barcelona.

We’re proud to announce that the best blend in Spain is roasted using ROURE Roasters — a true reflection of tradition, expertise, and excellence.

Behind this recognition lies a story of passion, dedication, and craftsmanship.

Cafés Puerto Rico, an artisanal roastery with more than 50 years of history in Alcorcón (Madrid), has dedicated itself to producing coffee of the highest quality.

Their master roaster, Aurelio, brings over 25 years of experience in perfecting the art of roasting, forming the perfect balance between tradition and technical mastery.

With more than 600 clients, mostly located in the south of Madrid, Cafés Puerto Rico has built a sustainable local business model — one that combines commitment to quality, community, and proximity, generating value, jobs, and local pride.

Their artisan philosophy and dedication to locally sourced products have made them a national benchmark for quality coffee in Spain.

“Revitalizing local commerce creates opportunities and benefits for the families of Alcorcón,”
highlighted Jesús Santos, Deputy Mayor of Alcorcón, during the celebration of this award.

At ROURE ROASTERS, we remain faithful to our essence — robustness, precision, and reliability in every machine.
But we also continue to evolve.

Our latest models incorporate the ROURE Roasting Profile Control Software, a tool developed to provide total control over the roasting process — combining cutting-edge technology with the craftsmanship that has defined our brand since 1948.

This software allows roasters to:

• Record and save every roast profile and recipe.

• Reproduce and fine-tune curves with precision.

• Monitor all parameters in real time.

• Access complete traceability for each batch.

With this system, roasters achieve exceptional batch consistency and can replicate roast profiles with total accuracy — ensuring quality and uniformity in every roast.

Cafés Puerto Rico’s success at the Fórum Coffee Festival perfectly reflects what we value most at ROURE:
the union of tradition, technology, and passion for coffee.

At ROURE Roasters, we are proud to support roasters like Cafés Puerto Rico — professionals who turn every roast into an expression of art, precision, and pride.

Their award-winning blend is not only a triumph for their team, but also a celebration of what can be achieved when craftsmanship meets innovation.
