How it does good
The story starts with ingredients
Tea and spices can be high risk categories when it comes to traceability and origin. DONA is working toward 100% single origin or directly traded ingredients, and they're committed to doing more for transparency in the spice industry. They deal directly with farmers in collectives across the globe to ensure the people who grow their ingredients are paid fairly. Plus, they divert over 400 gallons of food scraps a week from landfills by sending them to McEnroe Farm in New York for composting.
The black pepper is organically grown by a cooperative of small farmers in Zanzibar, Tanzania, and the turmeric is hand-picked at William Flores's farm in Guirruca, Nicaragua. They're also a leading company in direct sourcing of spices from all over the world. They make sure to pay farmers higher wages, and pride themselves on knowing where their spices come from.
Learn MoreThey're currently working towards 100% zero waste brewing and are actively limiting synthetics and single-use plastics in their production. Instead of polyester-based tape, they’ve switched to paper packing tape, and their signature glass bottles are reusable as flower vases, soap dispensers and to-go water bottles.

United Statesnot what i expected
i don't know if i used too much or used this wrong, maybe the chai one will be different. this isn't what i expected at all. i'm used to the the powder kinds of these that you can mix in water, milk, or in coffee. this was gross in my coffee and it was only good with milk, when i tried it in water, it tasted sour? it did taste good mixed in milk, but i like to have a versatile product cause i get bored too easy with drinks, i like to change it up often. thus mixing with coffee, which i didn't like this in at all.
United StatesAbsolutely delish.
Difficult to explain just how the aromas, taste and warmth all roll into one big ahhhhhhh.
