Early on, as regular users of cacao ourselves, we noticed a disconnect between what ceremonial cacao was meant to be and what was often being sold. Much of what we encountered was commodity cacao repackaged and marketed as ceremonial — long past its prime, heavily processed, and lacking the vibrancy cacao is known for. From the beginning, our goal was to work as close to the source as possible, focus on real quality, and create a cacao that delivers what it’s supposed to — without unnecessary markups or inflated pricing.
