Lovely Luna, Nicaragua in short

Lovely Luna is an intense, nutty, 100% Arabica coffee from northern Nicaragua. A touch darker, with notes of nuts and dark chocolate. A versatile Ray & Jules coffee, most delicious as an espresso or French press. Read more.

Ray & Jules sustainable coffee: slow and freshly roasted on solar energy.

Impact: Fairtrade

After months of video calls, long/content conversations and many coffee samples, the time has come; a long-term partnership with the relatively small and young cooperative of Laura and Heradio. These 12 coffee growers produced 55 tons of coffee this year of which we bought just under 23 tons with Ray & Jules.

In November 2024 we will be heading to Nicaragua to get to know these passionate people and their way of working better.

What's special
about this coffee

This cooperative has 12 producers who “run” 17 farms. Laura Davila & Heradio Morena, in addition to being married, are the founders of the cooperative. Coffee has been in both their families for more than 100 years and they joined forces in 2022 through the creation of this coop to face the many challenges in the sector.

About coffee from Nicaragua

It was not until 1840 that coffee began to become economically important in Nicaragua. During the dictatorship of the Somoza family in the period between 1940 and 1980, the coffee sector was hit hard with especially severe impact on the farmers. In 1998, Hurricane Mitch brought another tragedy to the sector.

Fortunately, recent years have been better for the coffee growers so quality of cultivation has improved tremendously. The coffees from Nicaragua possess typically complex and fruity flavors and a clean acidity.

How we make a difference

Solar powered roast

Sharing the technology of our 'sunroaster' means making more impact.

Strong partnerships

We grow climate-resistant plantations together with local farmers.

Fresh & slow

Your coffee is slowly roasted and arrives at your door a few days later.

Coffee, the first thing I think of in the morning, the first thing to start at work, a break with coffee and connect with colleagues, a pick-me-up in the afternoon, and yes in the evening a cup of comfort when needed. Coffee, a part of my life. For me espresso from the machine, for my husband poured mocha.

Onze favo voor cappuccino

Lovely Luna is onze fovoriet voor de cappuccino. Wij zetten de koffie met een moka apparaatje en schuimen melk van Jersey koeien. Echte verwennerij!
