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.

Lekker

Heel lekkere koffie. Alleen jammer dat er zoveel vliesjes inzitten. Dit komt mee in de espressomachine.

Hai Rosalinde,

Bedankt voor je review! De vliesjes hebben we inderdaad zelf ook al gemerkt, achter de schermen zijn we aan het werken aan een oplossing. Gelukkig kunnen we onze technologie constant verbeteren :-)
Zonnige groet,
team Ray & Jules

Voor mij te intens en bitter

Voor mij is de koffie te intens, zelfs met melk. In vergelijking met afternoon eve zou ik zeggen dat deze bijna 2 keer zo intens is

Hai Leila,

Bedankt voor je review. Lovely Luna is inderdaad één van de intensere koffies, dus je hebt helemaal gelijk! Ik zou aanraden om Brilliant Ben eens te proberen, dat is de meest milde in het assortiment en die zou ook zeker niet bitter mogen zijn ...
Zonnige groet,
