Extracto is one of a handful of small roasting companies cementing their success by expanding to second locations and turning up the volume on Portland's coffee scene in the process. This brand-new cafe features the same excellent coffee we've come to know and love at the original Extracto on Northeast Killingsworth Street in a smaller, simpler setting, presided over by a massive canvas dragon with a contemplative green monkey on its back. Once the new space is running at full tilt, it will feature a drip bar crafted by local sculptor Brian Borello, where you can taste a custom cup of single-origin coffee (try the beautiful Michicoy micro-lot from Finca Vista Hermosa) or Extracto's signature espresso blend, Eleven (as in, "turn it up to").
