Meet the cat

Luna

From Luna's Mom: Luna became an unexpected part of our family when a mama cat became pregnant with a litter and didn’t have homes for her babies. We never thought we would have a cat, but when we saw Luna, she instantly became a part of our family. Her name is Luna-licious because her personality is sweet and spicy. She now has three older hoooman brothers who constantly play, run and wrestle with each other, and Luna is always in the mix with them. She loves to cuddle, catch bubbles, play with water from the sink, and adores belly rubs. She is a lover of all food, especially Korean! She is the perfect fit between thriving between the chaos and earning all the constant love and attention. We are obsessed with her and she knows it!!

The coffee on this page is named after Luna.

The coffee

What it tastes like.

This dark roast single origin is a Don Claudio Costa Rica. Costa Rica takes pride in only producing high quality specialty grade coffees--one of the only countries that can claim this fact. Don Claudio comes from Coopeagri, which is a farm collective of small to mid-sized farms. This collective is fanatical about producing only high end coffees that are noticeably delicious with unique tasting notes.

We are re-releasing this beloved coffee as a dark roast to show off the coffee's flexibility. We love the smokiness combined with the hints of cranberry and nougat still present in the cup.

You'll like it if: you like a dark roast that still keeps some fruit and sweetness in the cup.
Maybe not if: you want a light, delicate Costa Rican.

Getting it right

How we'd brew Luna.

Our philosophy? If it tastes good, it is good. These are some of our guidelines for how to get a great cup, but don't treat them as gospel. Treat them as a suggestion.

We'd start herePour Over
Place a filter in the cone, make sure to pre-wet the filter. Add medium-fine grounds, and wet them with a small amount of hot water to bloom for 30 seconds. Pour the rest of the water in slow, spiraling circles over 2–3 minutes and let it drain through.
Espresso
Pack finely ground coffee tightly into the portafilter and lock it into the machine. Aim for 1:3-3.5 ratio of coffee to espresso in 25-35 seconds. Grind finer to increase brew time.
French Press
Add medium-coarse ground coffee to the carafe, pour in hot water (around 200°F), and stir. Let it steep for about 4-6 minutes, then press the plunger down slowly and serve right away. Grind finer for more strength.

Start with 1 oz of coffee per 20 oz of near-boiling water

Too weak: Add coffee before you add time. Longer brewing makes it bitter, not stronger.
Too bitter: Grind a little coarser, or let the water sit thirty seconds after it boils.
