Coffee wood comes from the stems of coffee plants that have reached the end of their productive cycle. A coffee plant produces for around twenty years, after which plantations are replanted. The resulting wood, particularly dense and fibrous, was traditionally burned: we give it a second life.
Let’s clear this up straight away, as it’s the first question we get: this wood contains no caffeine. The molecule is concentrated in the beans and leaves of the coffee plant, not in the wood of the stem. There is therefore no risk of stimulation for your dog.
When chewed, coffee wood behaves like olive wood: it doesn’t split into sharp shards but breaks down into soft fibres. It is, however, slightly lighter and slightly softer, which makes it our first recommendation for small breeds, older dogs and dogs whose teeth need care.
Every stick is simply stripped of bark, dried and hand-sanded. Its smooth surface and naturally irregular shape give it a pleasant feel in the mouth.
