Mahout’s Blend Coffee Capsules (Set of 6)

The Mahout’s Blend Whole Bean Coffee is a more affordable version of rare Black Ivory Coffee. This special blend honors the amazing work the Mahouts do in rearing and caring for the elephants. With their input and countless trials, Black Ivory Coffee has created the perfect blend of “elephant-refined” and non “elephant-refined” coffee beans, now in biodegradable coffee capsules .

Elephants are large and herbivores so the fermentation process is slow and intense. This gives more time for the flavors of the sweet cherry skins and pulp to mix with the coffee bean. The result is a smooth, sweet flavor with notes of chocolate, tamarind, spice, a hint of grass, and none of the bitter burnt aftertaste. The non-elephant Thai component has notes of chocolate, fig, and flowers for a nicely balanced cup.

Black Ivory Coffee is a socially conscious business that considers the welfare of the elephants and conservation of their habitat as critical in the making of their unique coffee. All of the elephants are treated with the utmost care from their full-time caregivers with treats like daily baths, play-time, and of course those luscious coffee cherries. Black Ivory Coffee also donates a portion of its proceeds to the Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation in Northern Thailand to send local children to a national park where they can see wild elephants for the first time and learn about the need for habitat protection.
