Ghirardelli®
And First Colony
Two Great Names Produce Great Tasting Organic Coffees
(April 16, 2004) NORFOLK, VA - Ghirardelli®, a name synonymous
with great tasting chocolate, is pleased to introduce a new
line of Organic and Naturally Flavored Chocolate Coffees.
First Colony Coffee and Tea Company, the exclusive licensee
of Ghirardelli® Chocolate Flavored Coffees has introduced
four decadent flavors, sure to make your mouth water for more:
Organic Chocolate Peppermint, Organic Chocolate Crème Brulee,
Organic Chocolate Cinnamon Almond, and Organic Chocolate Orange.
Organic coffees are grown and processed without any artificial
herbicides, pesticides or fertilizers. All Ghirardelli®
Organic Coffees are certified by the Organic Crop Improvement
Association (OCIA), which guarantees authenticity from the
farm to the cup. Just as important, First Colony is also
committed to the countries and workers who help bring us
the coffee we all enjoy. With each savoring sip of coffee,
you are supporting farmers who are committed to better farming
practices, and encouraging the promotion of sustainable
coffees for our future, and that or our children's.
"When you combine over 200 years of history and knowledge,
you are bound to come up with a winner. The new First Colony
line of Ghirardelli® Organic and Naturally Flavored Chocolate
coffees are the (a?) harmonious blend of great taste and
are environmentally friendly," said Charlie Cortellini,
president and CEO of First Colony.
First Colony has been roasting and blending coffees and
teas for more than 100 years and offers a complete line
of coffees and teas for the specialty food and gift markets.
The new Ghirardelli® line of Organic and Naturally Flavored
Coffees is available at gourmet food and drink retailers
and grocers nationwide. Also available by First Colony are
