Our Amazon Chai Guayusa flavor combines ginger, cardamom, and cinnamon with the Amazonian taste of green guayusa; an aromatic infusion that will transport you to the Amazon Rainforest of Ecuador We are focused on making the indigenous Kichwa communities of Ecuador's Amazon we work with the protagonists of our business by invigorating the local economy and creating social projects. WAYKANA Guayusa is grown, harvested, and processed in the Napo Amazon region of Ecuador. Indigenous Kichwa communities grow guayusa in traditional agroforestry plots known as "chakras," which include numerous Amazonian crop and plant species. Unlike monoculture plots, chakras act as "jungle farms," contributing to preserving the biodiversity of the Amazon and protecting the soils from erosion, providing animal and plant habitat, and impeding the intrusion of high-intensity agriculture. No fertilizers or pesticides are used in the cultivation, allowing WAYKANA to proudly carry USDA and EU organic certification. The emergence of WAYKANA as a growing company producing high-quality, healthy tea products from the Amazon offers sustainable empowerment to Kichwa communities through employment opportunity and a buying price higher than the Fair Trade standard.
