Mathias from ØNSK is crazy about Leonel's coffee: "For me, this is the ideal coffee - it has richness and soft flavors, complimented by a hint of fresh fruit. That contrast just makes for a truly outstanding and complex coffee. I always brew it in my stamp pot, which is also the way Leonel himself brews the coffee at Finca Santa Prisca".

When you buy ØNSK it is...
Direct trade
We deal directly with the coffee farmers to ensure they are properly paid for the hard work they put into producing high quality coffee.
Forest grown coffee
The coffee is grown in the shade of other trees, which has a number of advantages: more absorption of CO2, more biodiversity, a healthier soil that does not require pesticides, and not least a better tasting coffee.
Freshly roasted coffee
When you order coffee from ØNSK, it is always freshly roasted and of high quality. We roast the coffee every week and have a promise that we will not ship coffee that is more than 21 days from the roasting date.
100% hand-picked coffee
All coffee is hand-picked, which is your guarantee of high quality. This means that only the best and ripest berries have been picked.The story behind Leonel Valladares
73-year-old Leonel has spent his whole life with coffee. He lives on the Finca Organica Santa Prisca farm, which he has owned for 43 years. The small coffee farm is an oasis in the middle of the forest, where Leonel’s many grandchildren play and laugh under the tall trees.
Leonel is a man and farmer of principles. He does not believe that pesticides are necessary for the production of great coffee, and he produces his own fertilizer on the farm. His motivation is to take care of the nature and leave the world a better place for his grandchildren.
Leonel Valladares and his family are producing some of the best coffee beans in Nicaragua, while protecting the surrounding nature and taking care of the family.
Leonels coffee has been a part of ØNSK from the very beginning. We are incredibly proud to sell a coffee that is synonymous with the ideals on which ØNSK is built. Read more about Leonel and his story here.
Construction project at Leonel's farm
In collaboration with Leonel, we have created a building project on his farm that can support him in the production of organic fertilizer.
