Fair tea from Coca Cola

Honest organic tea uses Fairtrade certified tea

01-Dec-2020 - Germany

Coca-Cola, the largest German beverage producer, has been using Fairtrade produced tea for the production of its Honest Organic tea range since the beginning of the second half of the year. The "green tea Lemon Honey" variety was the first to do so. Also for the varieties "Black Tea Raspberry Basil" and "White Tea Peach Rosemary" the production will be completely converted to Fairtrade certified tea by the end of the year. The partnership with Fairtrade is a further step in Honest's commitment to the sustainable production of organic ingredients.

Sustainable commitment and transparency for consumers

Fairtrade operates in a complex and often poverty-ridden context. The aim of Fairtrade is to support producer organisations in their efforts to develop themselves and to improve the development standards of small farmers and employed workers. The seal of Fairtrade certification shows that Honest meets international economic and ecological standards and supports farmers with fair prices for their products. This not only results in long-term improvement for the farming community and trust and transparency among consumers.

The Honest product family

The first beverages of the Honest brand were launched in Germany in 2018. Honest organic tea is a brewed and low-calorie tea combined with natural ingredients from organic farming. Honest Organic Tea is available in the varieties "Black Tea Raspberry Basil", "White Tea Peach Rosemary" and "Green Tea Lemon Honey" in the 330ml returnable glass bottle (with a minimum recycling content of 55%) with a resealable lid and paper label. Since last year, the still Honest Bio Lemonade has also been available on the German market in the varieties "Lemon" and "Lemon Raspberry".
