2. The Soleil Levant Ground Coffee Origin and Taste:

Origin: Blend of organic coffees from Indonesia and Peru.

Taste: Certified organic and Fair Trade – a union of taste and conscience. With a delightful base of lime and orange blossoms, the enticement of this coffee’s harmony and delectable milk chocolate notes is impossible to resist.

High altitude roasting in the Swiss mountains: Roasted in the mountains of the city "la Chaux-de-Fonds" in Switzerland. Roasting at an altitude of 1000 meters allows the bean to flourish at a temperature which does not affect its essential aroma or flavors. The atmospheric pressure being lower at high altitude than at sea level, boiling occurs at a lower temperature. This physical property acts favorably on the quality of the coffees of La Semeuse, which are distinguished by their subtle power, their lack of bitterness and acidity.



Labels:

EU Organic Label ensures:
a) at least 95% of the ingredients coming from organic farming
b) a clear separation between organic and conventional products, during the production as well as during the stocking of the products
c) a complete interdiction of using genetically modified products, even in the animal feed
d) a strong limitation in the use of antibiotics on animals
e) the following of specific rules regarding animal welfare such as the size of the stable of the number of animals per sqm.

Fair Trade Label ensures:
a) Income sustainability: By making sure producers, workers, farmers, and fishermen have the money needed to invest in their lives and their work.
b) Empowerment: Rigorous standards give farmers, workers, and fishermen a voice in the workplace and the community.
c) Individual and community well-being: A model is fueled by committees of farmers, workers, and fishermen who decide how to invest the Fair Trade Premium based on their community's greatest needs: often clean water, education, and healthcare.
d) Environmental stewardship: Keep the planet healthy for generations to come by prohibiting the most harmful chemicals and taking measures to protect natural resources.

4. “La Semeuse” THE BRAND:

Descended from a family of grocers in Alsace, France. La Semeuse was founded in 1900 by Marc Bloch who specialized in the importation and distribution of groundnut oil. He died in 1916 for France on the Balkan front. His young widow, Hortense, took over the management of the company. She provided the necessary drive for its growth, and diversified its activities by developing coffee roasting. Premium coffee brands like “La Semeuse” strive to provide not only good coffee but the best coffee.


Revival
In 1976, after studying for a degree in Political Sciences and then working in many coffee producing countries, the founder’s grandson, Marc, joins the family business. He takes over the leadership from his father in 1982.

In May 2015, La Semeuse changes hands. Marc Bloch, the founder’s grandson retires from the company’s management and hands it over to the Bihler Family from Neuchâtel (in Switzerland), owner of Choco Diffusion group and several brands such as Goldkenn. Mr. Nicolas Bihler is assuming position of CEO in La Semeuse and ensures the continuity and values of the La Semeuse Coffees in the long term.

La Chaux-de-Fonds, place of origin of “La Semeuse”:
Since its creation in 1900, La Semeuse has always remained true to its place of origin. The location of this city is essential to create the unique taste of La Semeuse high altitude coffee company. “La Semeuse” belongs to the exclusive club of high altitude coffee brands. Roasting at an altitude of 1000 meters allows the bean to flourish at a temperature which does not affect the essential aroma or flavors. La Semeuse coffees are distinguished by their subtle power and lack of bitterness and acidity.

5. A Family, A Company, A Belief

Choco Diffusion is a Swiss Company, owned and founded by the Bihler family from Switzerland, and is now managed by Nicolas Bihler (son of the founder Jean-Willy Bihler). Nicolas followed in his father's footsteps, and perpetuates his family's devotion to quality, innovation and sustainable development. He has recently built a partnership in Ecuador to supply the very finest cocoa, to be enjoyed in some of their exclusive recipes.

Nicolas leads a team of true artisans of flavour, that combine diligence with a passion for their craft. On a constant quest for quality, their passion, and pursuit of excellence is tasteable in every one of their products.

Nicolas is delighted to say that they have as much passion for their profession today as when the company first started. The Bihler family believes that anything made with love will outlive us all.


6. Storage Advice:

Unlike conventional food, coffee does not have an expiration date, it is more about the deadline for an optimal use (best before date) after which the taste quality begins decreasing. For full enjoyment of La Semeuse coffee's distinctive taste qualities – body, aroma, flavour – we recommend a Best Before date. Past the Best Before date, coffee taste qualities gradually lose strength.

Coffee storage:
- In an airtight box or a perfectly closed hermetic bag
- Protected from light and moisture and at room temperature (avoid extreme hot / cold temperatures)
- For longer storage, the freezer may be an option

Shelf life after opening the package:
- Ground Coffee: After opening can be kept 2 to 4 weeks (read coffee storage section below). After that period its organoleptic properties begin degrading.
- Coffee Bean: After opening can be kept 3 to 4 months (read coffee storage section below). After that period its organoleptic properties begin degrading.
