BELIZE – Maya Mountain

Our Ceremonial Grade Cacao is from indigenous Mopan and Q’eqchi Maya tribes, out of Southern Belize. The cacao tree, also referred to as “Cucu” is a national tree in their community and grows in perfect harmony together with pineapple, vanilla and tobacco trees, which provided the subtle tones to this fine flavored and rare cacao bean. Everything on their lands is grown naturally / organically and in biodiversity, which is the perfect condition for cacao to flourish.

The Indigenous Maya family farmers pass their knowledge about the sacred plants from generation upon generation and harvest their cacao with deep respect for “La Madre Tierra”, supporting organic and sustainable farming throughout their community.
