Roaster's Pick

Stumptown is a Portland-born specialty coffee roaster that's been shaping American coffee culture for decades. They work directly with producers like Moisés Herrera and Marysabel Caballero at Honduras' Finca El Puente, offering a mix of single origins and iconic blends—Hair Bender (citrus, dark chocolate, raisin) and Holler Mountain (citrus, caramel, berry jam) are classics for a reason. Their coffees are roasted on a spectrum from light (level 3) to darker (level 7), so there's room to explore. They run cafes in multiple cities, sell beans online and in shops, and offer a subscription service that keeps fresh coffee coming on your schedule. Brew guides, a coffee quiz, and cold brew options round things out for the home brewer who likes to geek out a little.
