Depuis plusieurs années nous avons mis en commun nos compétences, et avons cherché des produits d'une qualité insoupçonnable avec la même philosophie : recherche des produits directement sur les lieux de production, refus de tout traitement chimique aussi bien sur la plante que sur le produit et a fortiori toute irradiation (hypocritement appelée ionisation), veiller à ce que les personnes travaillant dans ces plantations travaillent dans des conditions optimales, exiger de nombreux tris pour ne garder que les grains ou baies d'exception, refuser tout stockage long et acheminer les produits sans intermédiaire, c'est-à-dire avec une traçabilité maximale.
