Chai Spice Dust

A zero waste product.

Dona's zero waste spice dust are upcycled from the brewing process to create a light, aromatic powder to dust over Dona lattes. Small steps add up. After brewing, what cannot be reused is sent to McEnroe Organic Farm in Upstate New York to be composted - that's over 400 gallons of food scraps diverted from landfills each week. Less waste = a healthier supply cycle. 

A blend of cinnamon, cardamom & ginger. The aromatic dust adds a next-level spice experience to any Dona beverage. 

Cinnamon: Sourced from a collective in Thach An district, Cao Bang, Vietnam. This collective emphasizes sustainability, with cassia trees intercropped with anise and acacia shrubs to maintain soil fertility and crop nutrition stability.

Cardamom: Grown by a single farmer, Don Jesus in Trinidad, Santa Bárbara, Honduras. We purchase the majority of his cardamom crop, ensuring a fresh supply and paying a fair price

Ginger: Grown by a collective of small farmers in Nicaragua. This collective helps farmers reach the marketplace by providing resources, financing and ensuring income through contract growing as they expand into growing more crops.
