A Man With A Plan
Like most people, we love a good blockbuster film—especially when the star is as dreamy as Hugh Jackman. However, here at Milkshake we're more concerned with what's good than what's just plain good looking. So when Hugh Jackman decided to take a break from hunking it up on the big screen and take a stab at the philanthropic coffee business, we couldn’t have been more excited.
Laughing Man is now a go-to source for fair-trade coffee, tea, chocolates and gifts. After taking a trip to Ethiopia to meet friend and local coffee farmer Dukale, Jackman became inspired and decided to channel his energy into this culinary, humanitarian mission.
The roots of the project lie in creating jobs for local farmers from countries like Ethiopia and Indonesia. Their motto, “All be Happy,” is evident in everything—from the high quality products they create to the photos of laughing friends on every page.
But we’re sure you’re dying to know what’s inside the happy packaging. It’s a veritable flavor adventure, with blends from different regions of the world, including Papua New Guinea, Peru and Guatemala. If tea is your calling, try their Herbal French Lemon Ginger or White Tea Coconut Crème.
And did we mention all of the profits received—yes, 100%—from these community efforts is donated to charity? Talk about the snack that gives back.
Visit their website and let Laughing Man Worldwide put a smile on your face—they sure put one on ours!
