About
Koppi is the Helsingborg-based specialty coffee roastery and cafe that has, more than almost any other Swedish operation, defined what the country's modern coffee scene tastes like. Founded by Anne Lunell and Charles Nystrand — both Swedish Barista Champions who reached the finals of the World Barista Championship — the company has been an anchor of the Scandinavian specialty world since its early days, with a roast style and visual identity that's been profiled by every major specialty publication.
The founders' competition track record matters here: Anne Lunell finished 3rd at the World Barista Championship in 2008, and Charles Nystrand placed in international competition the same era. The Cindersgatan roastery and bar in Helsingborg has been the headquarters since, deliberately positioned outside the bigger Stockholm/Gothenburg gravity wells.
Koppi is one of the most uncompromising Nordic-light roasters in the region — even within the Scandinavian spectrum, the roast leans toward developing flavor clarity over body. The lineup rotates aggressively, with single-origin filters anchoring the menu and a tightly-scoped espresso program built for the cafe and wholesale customers. Subscription orders ship across Europe.

Coffee & Beans Review
[Sprudge profiled Koppi](https://sprudge.com/nice-package-koppi-in-helsingborg-sweden) in their long-running Coffee Design series — a meaningful design + reputation signal in specialty coffee media. The [Coffee Vine review](https://thecoffeevine.com/blog/koppi-swedish-boutique-roasters-in-a-class-of-their-own) is one of several profiles characterizing Koppi as "in a class of their own" among Swedish roasters. Beyond press, the long-running competition coffees and the regular appearance of Koppi bags in international subscription clubs and retailers form a sustained body of third-party signal.
The Cindersgatan cafe in Helsingborg is the destination — a short walk from the central station, the kind of place where you can spend an hour and try two coffees side by side. Wholesale supply runs across Sweden and Northern Europe; the webshop ships internationally.
