Verdict · checked Nov 1, 2026
Yes
Stumptown roasts its coffee in the USA, at roasteries in Portland, Oregon and New York. Its wholesale FAQ says "Our daily ordering cut-off is 2:00pm ET for orders roasted from our New York roastery and 2:00pm PT for orders roasted from our Portland roastery." The company was founded in Portland in 1999 and says "We've roasted on Probat machines since the very beginning."
| Product line | Made in | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Whole bean and ground coffee (Hair Bender, Holler Mountain, Founder's Blend and others) | Roasted in Portland, OR and New York from imported green coffee | Mixed |
| Roasting | Portland, OR and New York | Made in USA |
| Green coffee beans | Grown by producers in Central America, South America, Africa and Asia | Imported |
The coffee beans themselves are not grown in the USA. Stumptown buys green coffee through what it calls Direct Trade relationships with producers in Central and South America, Africa and Asia, including Guatemala, Colombia, Ethiopia, Rwanda and Indonesia. So Hair Bender, Holler Mountain and the other blends are roasted and packed in the US from imported beans, as is true of almost all coffee sold here.

About Stumptown Coffee Roasters
Stumptown Coffee Roasters roasts its coffee at roasteries in Portland, Oregon, and New York. The green beans are grown abroad and bought through direct relationships with farms.
From a Division Street beauty parlor
Stumptown opened its first cafe in Portland in 1999 on Southeast Division Street, in a former beauty parlor called Hair Bender. That name became its signature espresso blend. The company says it started with "one employee, a Ford Pinto for deliveries, and a single small vintage Probat roaster," and it still roasts on Probats.
In 2003 it began buying green coffee through Direct Trade, starting with the Aguirre family of Finca El Injerto in Guatemala. It now buys from dozens of producers on four continents.
Roasted in Portland and New York
Stumptown's wholesale FAQ sets separate daily cutoffs "for orders roasted from our New York roastery" and "from our Portland roastery," so a bag of Hair Bender, Holler Mountain or Founder's Blend is roasted and packed at one of those two sites.
The beans themselves are not American. Like almost all coffee sold in the US, they are grown by farmers outside the country and roasted here.
