"Blueberry, Jasmine, Lemon Zest"
"Brown Sugar, Dark Cherry, Hazelnut"
"Cedar, Dark Chocolate, Earthy"
Every decision we make — from farm selection to bag design — traces back to these three commitments.
We travel to origin — Ethiopia, Guatemala, Indonesia — and pay above Fair Trade rates directly to the farmers who grow our beans.
Every roast is hand-profiled in our SE Portland facility. We never batch more than we can sell fresh in two weeks.
From varietal selection to extraction guides in every bag, we give you everything you need to taste what we tasted at origin.
Choose your roast preference and cadence. We roast your beans fresh, ship within 48 hours, and include origin notes from Jamie with every delivery.
Cancel or pause anytime. No commitment, no fuss.
Jamie Holloway
Founder & Head Roaster · Portland, OR
Great coffee deserves great attention. Jamie Holloway founded Northwind after spending three years visiting farms across Ethiopia, Guatemala, and Indonesia — and realizing the story behind every bean was just as remarkable as the cup it produced.
Today, our two Portland cafés are gathering places for morning rituals and slow Saturday conversations. Our online subscriptions bring that same intentionality to your kitchen. This is not mass production. This is craft.
Pull back the curtain on coffee. Join Jamie for a hands-on tasting where we explore origin, processing, and roast side-by-side.
Compare five Ethiopian and Kenyan naturals side by side. Learn how altitude, variety, and fermentation shape the cup — and take home a 4oz bag of your favorite.
New origins, seasonal releases, brew tips, and event dates — delivered to your inbox, never more than twice a month.
