Cameron & Emily Curtis, Katelyn Kohl STOKED is a family owned and operated business in Hood River, Oregon. Craft Coffee has been at the center of this family from early on. Siblings Emily and Katelyn have been sipping coffee in their hometown of the Gorge for many years. Cameron drank his first Latte at twelve-years old (drink responsibly kids) at the Beanery in Corvallis, Oregon and has never stopped craving craft coffee since. In 2019 the family joined together to brew-up tasty, craft, organic coffee! The goal is to fill mugs with delicious coffee, create a space for friendship and community to be fostered over good coffee and keep people STOKED on life.

Katelyn Kohl, Co-Owner + Manager, Katelyn has been learning the art of coffee since her days in San Francisco, CA. While attending the Academy of Art University she worked as a Barista. As Katelyn studying art and photography, she began to spend her Saturdays traveling to a new San Franscico coffee shop. After graduation, Katelyn moved to Portland and continued to grow in her obsession with crafting the best cup of coffee, by gaining several Master Coffee certifications. Katelyn is passionate about what she calls the coffee experience, from the moment a customer walks into the tasting room, helping them choose a drink, brewing a perfect cup and keeping people STOKED.
