Panama Elida Estate Catuai Natural

Port 2050 Coffee Roasters is a Minneapolis-area micro-roastery founded by professional barista Alex Castaneda, whose coffee career has spanned three countries and eight years, and whose vision is inspired by his hometown of Puerto Cabello, Venezuela. The roastery specializes in accessible, sustainable single-origin and microlot coffees, offering a rotating selection of thoughtfully sourced beans from regions like Panama, Ecuador, Mexico, Kenya, and Colombia. Each lot is carefully evaluated for flavor complexity and traceability, and features detailed origin information to connect drinkers more deeply with the coffee’s story. More than a coffee producer, Port 2050 fosters community and creativity—operating as a coffee destination at Artlet26 in Saint Paul, where small batches are roasted and brewed with intention. Their approach combines rigorous sourcing with an engaging, knowledgeable customer experience, making specialty coffee both approachable and meaningful for enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
