Sognefjord Kaffibrenneri

Sognefjord Kaffibrenneri has been roasting coffee for over many years from its base in Sogndalsfjøra in Sogndal, Norway, importing green coffee directly from farmers and roasting it to order each week to serve offices, restaurants, hotels, and cafes across the country. The roastery offers a monthly subscription service called Kaffi i Postkassa that delivers freshly roasted coffee directly to customers' mailboxes, and specializes in business to business coffee agreements that include equipment alongside the beans, providing a complete service for hospitality and office clients. The single origin selection includes coffees such as Kijani Koboko from Kenya and Shantawene from Ethiopia, reflecting a sourcing approach that prioritizes distinctive regional character and traceability from farm to roaster. Operating from the edge of the Sognefjord in western Norway, the roastery brings specialty coffee to a region far removed from the urban scenes of Oslo and Bergen, proving that artisanal roasting can thrive in the Norwegian countryside. Sognefjord Kaffibrenneri combines the discipline of weekly roast to order freshness with the scale to service businesses nationwide, a balance that has sustained the operation in one of Norway's most spectacular and remote settings.
