Luna Coffee is the kind of roaster everyone dreams of working with: ethics-first, farmer-focused, and deeply passionate about creating a fairer coffee industry. They meticulously manage their operations to ensure they uphold and strengthen the relationships they have cultivated over the years. To that end, we're thrilled that Luna have chosen to partner with Extra Coffee, to bring their wonderful coffees to the UK.
A Canadian Gem in Specialty Coffee
Founded in 2017 by Laura Perry and Nate Welland, Luna Coffee has quickly gained recognition for its innovative approach to roasting and its deep respect for the coffee-growing process. From their home base in Vancouver, they work directly with producers across the globe, fostering relationships that emphasise fairness and long-term collaboration.
Luna’s philosophy is simple yet profound: they aim to source coffees that not only taste remarkable but also tell a story. Whether it’s a small lot from Colombia or a standout harvest from Ethiopia, each coffee reflects the unique environment and expertise of its origin.
A Focus on Colombian Coffees
For February, Luna Coffee brings their expertise in sourcing exceptional Colombian coffees. Known for their bright acidity, balanced sweetness, and intricate flavour profiles, Colombian coffees are a favourite among coffee enthusiasts worldwide. Luna’s selections are no exception, often featuring notes of tropical fruit, caramel, and citrus.
What sets Luna apart is their meticulous attention to detail. They partner with producers who share their values, ensuring every coffee is grown, harvested, and processed to the highest standards. This commitment not only delivers superior taste but also supports sustainable practices within the coffee industry.
A Transparent Roasting Approach
Luna Coffee’s transparency extends beyond sourcing—it’s at the core of their roasting process. They embrace a "light and bright" roasting style, designed to highlight the natural characteristics of each coffee. Instead of overpowering the beans with heavy roasting, they allow the unique flavours of the origin to shine. For Luna, it’s not just about making coffee; it’s about honouring the hard work and craftsmanship that goes into every bean.
How to Get Your Hands on Luna Coffee
To experience Luna Coffee’s exceptional offerings, make sure to place your order by 20th January. Boxes featuring Luna’s coffees will be shipped in the first week of February. With their focus on Colombian coffees this month, it’s the perfect opportunity to explore new and exciting flavour profiles.
