People who make a point of eating Fair Trade chocolate should take a look at the line of Fair Trade chocolate bars from Shaman Chocolates, including two new organic Fair Trade bars. As a second humanitarian bonus, sales help support the maintaining of the pre-Columbian traditions of the Huichol Indians, a tribe living in the Sierra Madre Mountains of central western Mexico who are said to be the last indigenous tribe in North America. All profits from the sales of Shaman Chocolates help support the work of the Huichols, who make visionary yarn paintings and beaded artwork and continue to live in their traditional ways.
Flavors include Dark Chocolate, Dark Chocolate with Coconut, Dark Chocolate with Ruby Raspberries, Organic Dark Chocolate with Acai, Lemon & Orange, Organic Dark Chocolate with Green Tea & Ginger, Extra Dark Chocolate (82% cacao), Milk Chocolate, Milk Chocolate with Hazelnuts, and Milk Chocolate with Macadamia Nuts & Hawaiian Pink Sea Salt.
