Discover the Moka Origins Chocolate & Coffee Factory Tour in Pennsylvania
Nestled in the Pocono Mountains of Honesdale, Pennsylvania, Moka Origins is a socially conscious craft producer that creates small-batch chocolate and coffee — all while empowering farming communities around the world. On this immersive factory tour, visitors experience every step of the process, from sourcing beans to roasting, grinding, and tasting the finished products.
The guided experience brings together the best of both worlds: the rich aroma of roasting coffee and the smooth, earthy scent of freshly milled cacao. Visitors see the artistry of bean-to-bar chocolate making and farm-to-cup coffee roasting, learn about sustainable farming practices, and sample freshly brewed coffee and handcrafted chocolate bars.
Why it’s special: Moka Origins combines ethical impact and craft excellence. Each purchase helps plant trees, support small farmers, and create meaningful livelihoods — making this tour both delicious and inspiring.
History of Moka Origins
Moka Origins was founded in 2015 as a collaboration between humanitarian organization Himalayan Institute and social entrepreneur Jeff Abella. The mission was simple but powerful: to fight poverty through sustainable trade. What began as a small cacao and coffee project has grown into a recognized brand known for its transparency, ethical sourcing, and premium flavor.
Today, Moka’s Pennsylvania factory serves as both a production facility and an educational center, showing visitors how good business can also do good for the planet.
