100% pure organic, single-origin, Peruvian ceremonial cacao paste. Australian-Peruvian owned and operated family business. Scientifically researched and supported by aΒ Callaghan InnovationΒ research grant.

TheΒ SpiralΒ in AndeanΒ cosmovision represents theΒ Ukhu Pacha – the world below and the connection to our ancestors. This special ceremonial paste is hand-crafted fromΒ criollo cacao in Tocache,Β Peru, in honour of the Awajun tribe who hold the spiral cacao temple of Monte Grande in Jaen.Β It is organically shade-grown and hand-selected by our artisanalΒ farmer to the best potency and quality of each block. It is blessed and provides high-vibrational energy, with reverence for Peru’s ancient ceremonial cacao traditions.

Our ceremonial Criollo cacao has an incredible ratio ofΒ 29:1 – theobromine:caffeine. Perfect for the uplifting, heart opening effects without the negative side-effects of caffeine over-stimulation. Our biochemical analysis has shown it to be also potent in levels of ethanolamides (NAEs)Β for feelings of intense bliss, polyphenols for mental clarity andΒ tryptophan for sensations of joy and happiness. It has a strong profile ofΒ sweet and fruity flavours absorbed from the Amazonian agroforestry in which it grows.

It is anΒ externalising cacao that brings uplifting, heart opening bliss and energising clarity. We recommend this cacao for use in ceremonies involving movement, breath work, dance, expression and for daily use to assist with energy, immunity, balance and well-being.
