Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.

I have four coffee shops in the Portland Oregon metro area. Shops are a combination of quality in atmosphere and quality in products. As a roaster retailer we look for flavor profile in the cup and sustainable nature of the coffee.

Equipment in the coffee shops are Fetco Drip Brewers, La Marzocco Linea and GB-5.

About Me:

My first job in the coffee business was delivering to vending machines. My first cup was from a freeze dried RMI Office brewer. Wasn't enough cream or sugar to make it tast good. Our business was a family run operation back in the late 80's. Since then we began roasting on a Sivetz 30# and opened 4 retail shops. I enjoy participating in many of the industry trade shows and sharing ideas from other industry folks.

About My Company:

World Cup is a specialty coffee roaster, retailer and office coffee service company. We specialize in sourcing great coffees, providing great quality products and superior customer service. We are a family owned company with my father and myself. Our main focus is on the quality of the bean on the cupping table. We also have a high concern for the sustainable nature of the coffee.
