An Expert panel of coffee tasters selected Moksha's Organic, Shade Grown Indian Mysore Coffee from among many brands and roasts, as the best coffee to pair with chocolate.
We have this coffee roasted to order for you so it's as fresh as possible. We don't keep this in stock so it always lists as backordered - go ahead and place your order and we'll have it roasted for you.
This Organic, Shade Grown Indian Mysore is a clean tasting natuarlly sweet coffee with hints of vanilla & chocolate. This coffee comes from several estates with which Moksha has special relationships. This coffee is shade grown and the plantations share soil with several spice crops. This Arabica bean is known for its large bean size and great bold cup. It has the least acidity in the world. Hence it is an excellent choice for single origin espresso. This is a rare, premium coffee and truly represents the best quality coffee from India.
How Are You Greening Your Valentine?
o When you buy Fair Trade chocolate you ensure that no child, enslaved or otherwise, labored to harvest or process the cacao beans. Unfortunately, 70% of chocolate that is not Fair Trade comes from areas documented to have child slave labor: the Ivory Coast (43%), Nigeria and Cameroon (27% combined). Most large corporate chocolate makers refuse to specify the source of their chocolate. Since manufacturers comingle cacao beans in production, odds are that most non-fair trade chocolate contains cacao from beans from areas that enslave children to harvest cacao.
o When you buy Fair Trade you support the farming communities supporting themselves. Fair Trade guarantees the participating farmers financial and educational support necessary not only to survive, but also to improve their communities and develop their businesses.
o You support the local economy when you purchase locally produced products from local shops such as these products made in San Francisco and Mountain View from a shop in Mountain View.
o You support your community when you purchase from local shops that are part of your community. The owners and workers at these shops support the community through volunteer work and fundraisers and your purchase helps support these efforts.
o Organically grown coffee and cacao is less energy intensive, does not use petroleum-based fertilizers, does not poison the growers and harvesters with pesticides and keeps toxic pesticides out of your food.
o Shade grown coffee beans means the coffee trees grow underneath native canopy trees that provide habitat for native birds and other wildlife thus maintaining the natural eco-system of the area
We ask that the participating school or organization write and send to us a brief article describing how they are using the funds to help "green" their school or organization.
