PORTLAND, Ore. — Coda Coffee Company and Pilot Coffee Roasters have taken the top honors in Roast magazine’s 10th annual Roaster of the Year competition.

The two coffee roasting companies are featured in the trade publication’s November/December 2013 issue, available online at http://roastmagazine.com/about/contests/roasteroftheyear/2014.

Roast magazine’s Roaster of the Year award recognizes companies that roast coffees of superior quality, exemplify a dedication to sustainable practices and employee education, and demonstrate a commitment to the coffee industry, among other criteria.
