Curator’s note
Ryan Aicklen and Laura Moeller started roasting on a small 1kg machine, and today they run Primo Passo on the corner of Montana and 7th, a shop that soft-opened there in March 2012 pouring Stumptown. A sister Primo Passo now pours in Knoxville, Tennessee.
The Coffee
Espresso drinks are built on a 1.5oz double ristretto with Straus Organic milk, decaf or half-caf on request, and the macchiato is the traditional Italian one, two ounces of steamed milk. The pour-over list runs the single origins, a Colombia grown from Ethiopian Sidamo heirloom at El Rubi in Huila among them, and the cold side keeps a chicory New Orleans cold brew and nitro on tap.

The Vibe
Ralph Gentile Architects drew the interior of this corner at Montana and 7th, a practice known for working the seam between indoors and out. Co-owner Laura Moeller is an interior designer herself, and she hand-paints the label on every retail bag, a shop where the design instinct did not stop at the walls.
