Native heirloom Acriollado cacao from the Alta Verapaz region of Guatemala. Stone-ground in small batches, unsweetened, full of theobromine and minerals (magnesium, iron, zinc). Sourced from Q’eqchi’ Maya cooperatives via FEDECOVERA, supported by 25,000+ farmer families, Top 20 Heirloom Cacao designation, paid 125% above market through our Reciprocity Program.
The mushroom of clarity. Lion’s Mane is an adaptogen prized for supporting focus, mental sharpness, and a quiet, steady presence. Paired with cacao, it brings a luminous, gently uplifted state, the kind of focus that opens, not narrows.
Sweet, grounding warmth. True Ceylon cinnamon (not the cheaper cassia), prized in Maya tradition. It balances blood sugar, supports steady energy, and softens cacao’s bitter edges with a comforting, earthy sweetness that anchors the body.
The spice of mental clarity. Cardamom adds a bright, aromatic lift that supports digestion and lightens the mind. It opens the airways and softens the richness of cacao with a clean, almost floral finish.
Choose Your Serving
A simple, slow practice. Let each step be part of the ritual.
Break a piece from your 100g disc. 10g for a daily cup, 20g for meditation, 30-50g for ceremony. Each person feels cacao differently. Begin gently.
Warm water, plant milk (oat is silky and sweet), or herbal tea to about 70°C. Never boil. Your Golden Focus blend is already infused with Lion’s Mane, Ceylon cinnamon, cardamom, and vanilla.
Whisk with a molinillo, hand whisk, or blender until a soft foam crowns the cup. The rainbow shimmer of the froth is the spirit of Ix Cacao herself. As you stir, weave in your intention.
What is your heart whispering to you right now? Choose an intention that resonates, or write your own.
Hold your warm cup close. Choose your path: let Sharon’s voice ground you, or breathe with the mandala.
The native heirloom cacao at the heart of your Golden Focus blend was grown, fermented, and sun-dried by Q’eqchi’ Maya families across the misty highlands of Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, through our partnership with FEDECOVERA cooperative. Through our Reciprocity Program, every farmer family is paid 125% above the world market price.
