Cafés de la Luna is a brand of shade-grown coffee, farmed in alliance with the phases of the moon and processed naturally under the sun on the slopes of Volcan Baru at Finca Dos Jefes in Boquete, Panamá.
The overriding philosophy and practices of the farm are predicated upon sustainability of the land, the environment, and most importantly, the people who work to produce this extraordinary coffee.
OUR COFFEE VARIETIES & BLENDS
ARABICA BLEND
Our house blend is a mix of 4 arabica varietals: Catura, Catuai, Catimor & Typica. In a medium roast, our blend has notes of red fruits and chocolate. We also offer our blend in a darker roast.
GESHA
Our Gesha is appropriately named Egalitarian Gesha, because we believe great coffees should be for everyone. Lightly roasted, tastes of tangerine, chocolate and peach.
PACAMARA
The largest of our beans, and a fan favorite, our Pacamara is light roasted to appreciate its juicy citrus acidity and intense fruit flavors.
YELLOW CATUAI
Like the name states, these cherries ripen yellow instead of red. Its flavor notes are caramelized stone fruit and chocolate.
