Ceremonial Cacao / 100% Pure Cacao Paste
Peruvian "Criollo" Cacao
Step into a deeper state of connection with our beautiful Criollo cacao, ethically sourced from the Asháninka tribes of Satipo, Junin, nestled in the lush VRAEM region of Peru, where the Apurímac, Ene, and Mantaro rivers weave through ancient rainforest. This sacred land is not only rich in biodiversity but is also home to vibrant Indigenous communities who have cultivated cacao for generations with deep reverence for nature.
Our cacao is made from the rare Criollo variety, considered the finest and most delicate of all cacao strains. Grown organically and processed minimally, this cacao is hand-picked and prepared by Asháninka farmers honouring ancestrial traditions. Their commitment to sustainable agroforestry helps protect the Amazon while preserving a rich cultural legacy.
The result is a pure, potent cacao paste with a complex flavour profile, floral and clean, with gentle bitterness and bright citrus notes. Rich in theobromine, it offers a natural and sustained energy boost without the crash of caffeine, making it ideal for heart-opening rituals, focused work, or mindful movement.
Whether you’re entering ceremony, deepening your meditation practice, dancing through somatic exploration, or simply seeking clarity and nourishment, this cacao is a grounding and uplifting ally.
