Combining the owner’s Mexican heritage with a Pacific Northwestern-bred passion for quality coffee, Dahlia Coffee has opened its first retail location in Cleveland, Ohio. “I wanted the colors to scream ‘Mexico!’, but in a modern way,” Dahlia Coffee Founder and Roaster Natalia Alcazar told Daily Coffee News. Alcazar, whose parents were born in Michoacán, Mexico, seeks to showcase Mexican culture while also bringing to bear her experiences drinking coffee in Portland, Oregon. “Growing up in Portland, I became obsessed with coffee,” Alcazar told Daily Coffee News. “It’s only two months old, but [the cafe] is receiving a lot of attention in Cleveland because I’m the only Mexican coffee shop in town,” said Alcazar.
