History
Nossa Familia Coffee started out of pride and frustration. Fed up with an unfulfilling engineering job, my thoughts kept drifting to the incredible coffee farms in Brazil where I spent much of my childhood. Filled with a deep sense of pride for the work my family had been doing in Brazil for over 100 years, I knew I wanted to share their coffee with my community in Portland. We started slowly and unconventionally. My family helped us get started by shipping a container of coffee to Portland on consignment. We found a local roasting partner and got customers excited about our family connection and heritage. We have evolved since 2004: we opened our roastery in 2012 and Espresso Bar in 2013. We have begun expanding beyond the family line to bring you coffees from other families and co-ops in different growing regions of the world. Nossa Familia will continue to evolve as a company, but our roots in social and environmental responsibility, coffee quality, & relationships remain strong.
