Is Kicking Horse Coffee gluten/nut/allergen free?Updated 5 months ago
In our facility, we only make one thing: coffee! It's roasted from one ingredient only: green coffee. We don't use additives, fillers, or flavouring. We follow very strict food safety guidelines to ensure our coffee does not come in contact with gluten, nuts, dairy or soy.
We have had a couple of people express their concerns regarding the chance of cross-contamination in the harvest and or during transportation. If the nature of your allergy is quite severe, we can see a small chance for cross-contamination during these two processes. Our beans are procured from various areas around the world and unfortunately, we are unable to keep track of or monitor what is growing in the fields nearby. Also, the green beans we receive here at our facility are transported in burlap sacks, which could also result in a chance of cross-contamination during their journey to us.
Although these instances of potential cross-contamination are slight, we feel that it is important for people with severe allergies to be aware of such risk.
