We love our roots and we are not referring to our lineage but the awesome turmeric (curcuma) and ginger roots which we magically convert into artisanal extracts. We then leverage these carefully crafted and highly nutritious extracts into our wellness lattes Kurkuma (turmeric, ginger) & Chai (ginger) to help you gain valuable nutritional and health benefits.

We use the following fresh ROOTS for our Kafi Kurkuma wellness latte:
