Kitanda is a family-owned business that has been bringing quality Brazilian products to the U.S. since 1998. We began as a small shop in the U District of Seattle and have since grown, but we have always remained family owned and operated. Kitanda has built a strong reputation by offering a wide variety of products including delightful Brazilian pastries as well as our naturally gluten-free tapioca cheese bread, gourmet coffee, and our acai bowls and smoothies. Both our coffee beans and our acaí pulps are always organic and fair trade. We use authentic and traditional family recipes in everything we make. Our mission, as a family, is to serve our customers with excellence and unforgettable experiences that range from a simple cup of coffee to healthy conscious, and delicious food.
