Lucky Lou - Lungo in short

Enjoy a delicate coffee adventure, Lucky Lou is the perfect lungo with marzipan in the aftertaste. Sustainable coffee from Ray & Jules: slow roaste, with the power of the sun in a compostable coffee capsule.

Fair: fair trade or direct trade

Our ultimate goal: equal and direct relationships with cooperatives and/or farmers . We want to give them ownership in the coffee chain and grow together towards climate-proof plantations.

If this is not (yet) possible, we choose FTO. Through these labels we can be sure that farmers receive support to provide for their livelihood and to invest in their coffee cultivation.

What's special
about this coffee

Lucky Lou was (just like Powerful Peter) the reason to travel to his origins for the first time (in 2021). Much of the information read online really became clear and meaningful. The difficult reality of the farmers hit us.

In February 2024, Sarah headed to the region again, this time to build a partnership with Doña Olga. At the beautiful finca San Florencio, Olga works on weekends with her (grand)daughter, during the week she is a teaching assistant because they cannot make a sufficient living from coffee. The finca is located in a beautiful paradise, full of flowers, tropical plants, old trees and birds of all colors. With this collaboration we support Olga.

We agreed to buy Olga's entire harvest. You can read the result in this blog. Now that Olga's coffee beans are all sold, we are buying from Maya Ixil, a cooperative in her neighborhood.

Our search for the perfect capsule

We heard you loud and clear: the previous capsules were not always... how shall we put it accommodating. So went looking for a better solution. After a long search, we ended up with these capsules - new material, same green promise (home compostable, of course!).

The result? A capsule that not only works better, but hopefully makes your day just that little bit easier. Try them and tell us what you think - we're eager to hear!

Producers & cooperative

Since June, Lucky Lou has come from the paradisiacal finca of single woman doña Olga, in Las Barrancas, Quetzaltenango. Together with her daughter Alejandra, she grows the most delicious beans.

A beautiful region, but with a sad history where the government in the 1980s massively persecuted the indigenous people and destroyed their villages.

We purchased Olga's entire crop, and have been supplementing it with an organic blend from several Santa Avelina farmers since early February 2025.

goede koffie maar soms problemen met toestel

Ik koop altijd de nespresso-capsules. De koffie is lekker en ik houd van het concept maar geregeld loopt het mis met het Nespresso-toestel waardoor de koffie niet lukt en ik de capsule moet weggooien... Toch zeker 1 keer op 10...

Hai Marijke,

Bedankt voor de info, dat is inderdaad best veel. Ik heb het intern doorgegeven aan de persoon die de contacten rond de productie van de capsules onderhoudt.
Zonnige groet,
team Ray & Jules

Heerlijk koffie, koppige capsules

De koffie is zoals altijd heerlijk van smaak. Maar mijn machine heeft wat moeite met de capsules. Ze lijken harder en stugger te zijn. Mijn machine krijgt ze moeilijk doorprikt en springt vaak terug open. Maar misschien ligt het gewoon aan mijn machine?

Hai Liselotte,
Inderdaad, de capsules hebben een iets andere samenstelling omdat ze home compostable zijn. Onze brander Sarah schreef er een blog over, om wat meer toelichting te geven. Je kan 'm hier lezen moest je meer willen weten: https://ray-jules.com/blogs/sunny-people/waarom-we-onze-koffiecapsules-opnieuw-uitvonden
Zonnige groet, team Ray & Jules

Sommige cups werken niet goed met de nespresso machine.

Bedankt voor je review! Sommige cups passen inderdaad minder vlot dan de aluminium capsules in de Nespresso machines, ze glijden minder soepel - dat komt door de structuur van het composteerbare materiaal dat minder glad is dan metaal. Door te kiezen voor verantwoordelijkheid en duurzaamheid boeten we dus wat in op comfort. Omdat we hier wel meer opmerkingen over kregen, schreven we een blogpost met wat achtergrond, tips en tricks. Die lees je hier: https://ray-jules.com/blogs/sunny-people/waarom-we-onze-koffiecapsules-opnieuw-uitvonden
