When it comes to cacao, consistency isn’t always a green flag. 🚩

Different origins, harvests, fermentation and growing conditions can all influence flavor. So we don’t expect every harvest to taste exactly like the one before it.
We celebrate those differences. In fact, you’ll find the origin and harvest year right on our packaging.

Because cacao should have character. 🍫

And a special thank you to Dustin Poynter for providing the internet with the perfect flag moments. 🚩💚

You never really know what something will become when you first start.

You just make the first batch, pack the first orders, meet the right people, make a few mistakes, learn a lot… and keep going.

Somewhere along the way, a home kitchen became a warehouse, a few products became a whole cacao lineup, and an idea for a storefront became a real place we get to walk into every day.

A lot has changed. The curiosity behind it hasn’t.

Jungle Diaries 📚

Life along the river has its own rhythm.

During our time in the Peruvian Amazon, moments like this were everywhere. Kids moving through the river like it was simply another part of home, completely comfortable in a place that provides so much of everyday life.

Transportation, food, play, a place to cool down, a place to gather.
Sometimes the moments that stayed with us most were the ones where nothing was really happening at all.

Just another afternoon on the river.

More beans. More possibilities. Same cacao you already know. 🌱🍫
Our High Amazon Basin cacao beans are now available in a 1 kilo bag.

Snack on them, roast them, experiment with your own chocolate, or finally start that cacao project you’ve been thinking about.

Same beans. Bigger bag. Better value.

There’s a whole journey behind every piece of chocolate. 🍫

From going directly to origin and building relationships with the communities growing our cacao, to bringing those beans back to our factory and turning them into the chocolate you finally get to taste.

Good cacao doesn’t just happen. And we wouldn’t want it any other way.

“This is what chocolate is supposed to taste like.”

That’s one of our favorite things to hear.

If you’ve been curious about ceremonial cacao or wondering what makes bean-to-bar chocolate different, come visit us in Encinitas. We’d love to share a cup of cacao, answer your questions, and help you discover real cacao for yourself. 🤎

Most people look at the cacao percentage.
We look at the ingredient list. 👀

Sometimes the biggest difference isn’t the number on the front of the wrapper. It’s what goes into making it.
Less ingredients. More cacao.
