"Naturale" Cacao

Our single origin Ceremonial Cacao beans are sourced from around 400 different indigenous Maya family farmers in southern Belize. These family farmers are from two different Maya nations: Mopan and Q’eqchi, located in the region known as the Maya Mountains, which is the least developed and most rural region of Belize. Here they cultivate the ancient Criollo “Heirloom” variety, also knows as the Queen of cacao.

COMING SOON…
Our single origin Ceremonial Cacao beans are sourced from the indigenous Q’eqchi’ Maya families, many of whom live off grid in the highlands of Guatemala around the Laguna Lachuá,- a large pristine Cenote lake. These rare cacao beans are grown in a biodiverse, organic ecosystem where cacao has flourished alongside honey, cardamom, and corn for thousands of years, creating their unique flavor profile.
With full traceability from tree to cup, our cacao is harvested by indigenous farmers who are committed to sustainable farming and protecting their land from industries like palm oil. Through partnerships with Fundalachua, the Q’eqchi’ Maya communities from the local Asodirp & K’atb’alpom alliances maintain their lands and improve their quality of life.
This single-origin cacao offers you the chance to connect directly with the source, supporting conservation and indigenous livelihoods with every cup. Perfect for daily rituals of self-care and heart-centered living.

COMING SOON… Our single origin Qʼeqchiʼ Cacao beans are grown deep in the rainforest in Guatemala from the Federation of Cooperatives of Coban, Alta and Baja Verapaz in Guatemala. The Cacao trees on these small-scale farms are incredibly special and have a long history of mixing naturally over several decades to produce a unique blend of Criollo and traces of trinitario material, otherwise know as premium “Acriollado.”

Natural, unique and most importantly, produced 100% by small-scale farmers from the indigenous people of Mayan Q´eqchi.

We are proud to work with one of Guatemala’s leading reforestation organisations, who have been leading by example since 1976, fulfilling their mission to provide a way for farmers to improve their living conditions while honouring and protecting their culture and ecosystem.

We pay a premium on these very special beans to ensure the sustainable cultivation of Cacao from tree to cup.
