"Nossa Familia, Portugese for ‘our family,’ has become a mainstay in the city since its 2004 beginnings. Nossa founder Augusto Carneiro grew up in Rio de Janeiro and sources the majority of the brand’s green coffee from his own family’s farms in the highlands of Brazil, along with coffee from Kenya, Nicaragua, and beyond. At the roaster’s cafes — including locations in central eastside, Ladd’s Addition, and the Pearl — coffee drinkers will find the standard array of milk drinks and espresso, as well as Brazilian cafézinho, potent espresso with hot water and raw sugar; Nossa’s chocolate-espresso whipped cream is a sweet addition to most of the cafe’s drinks." - Katrina Yentch, Nathan Williams
