About us:

As one of the premier coffee roasters in the United States, we embody a relentless focus on quality, and quality doesn’t come easy. It’s the result of hard work, experience, and persistence. 

Coava was founded in 2008 in a garage in North Portland by a veteran barista. Having spent years in specialty coffee, Matt dreamed of starting his own company where he could roast and prepare coffees that would be exciting for professional baristas and inviting to everyday drinkers. Over the years, we’ve grown to a team of nearly fifty coffee lovers who have a vast scope of knowledge and experience and of course, a genuine passion for coffee. 

Our menu is focused on single origin coffees. We offer a rotating selection of small lot, seasonal coffees. We invest in sustainable, long-term partnerships with exceptional coffee producers and have diligently refined our craft in order to roast some of the highest-scoring coffees in the world. It’s an absolute honor to share them with you.
