View RSS Feed Hotel is first in San Antonio to offer unique blend to guests

San Antonio (August 28, 2008) - Hotel Valencia Riverwalk, a chic, upscale property located on the banks of the famed River Walk is pleased to announce that they are furthering their green initiatives by launching a new product, Valencia Blend, a fair trade/organic coffee.

Fair Trade coffee means more than fair prices, when consumers buy Fair Trade Coffee they are supporting fair labor conditions, direct trade, community development, environmental stability and more. Hotel Valencia is the first hotel in San Antonio to take advantage of such offerings - turning a common hotel amenity into a bold step against unfair practices and into the production of sustainable products.

"We decided to look into fair trade coffee not only because of the benefits of drinking organic," said Executive Chef Jeffrey Balfour. "But also for the possibility for creating a unique flavor combination, something that our guests will truly enjoy and that can evolve as a signature product offered exclusively at our hotel."

Valencia Blend, already being served throughout the property, is a custom-blend of Rwandan and Ethiopian beans which helps garner a unique flavor combination. This signature coffee will soon be served at all Valencia Group properties and will be available for purchase through the food and beverage outlets and eventually through an online store.
