A sensory and nutritional experience to discover every aspect of this natural superfood.

🌳 Origin: A Deep Collaboration  This precious, rare and unique Fino de Aroma cocoa is born in the heart of the natural biosphere of the Jiquilisco Bay, in the province of Usulután, El Salvador, where for decades they have been working on a thriving, sustainable and respectful cultivation of fino de aroma cocoa with precious ancestral genetics. Each seed comes from a sincere collaboration with those who cultivate this unique and regenerative plantation, where biodiversity and agroforestry intertwine.

Why Pure Cocoa?
Considered sacred by ancient Mesoamerican peoples, cocoa offers valuable nutrients for the nervous system and emotional well-being. Rich in antioxidant flavonoids and tryptophan, it supports the production of serotonin for a "mood-improvement" effect and activates anandamide, "the bliss molecule," providing a feeling of well-being.

How to Prepare Your Ritual:
Cut about 20 g of cocoa and heat 180-200 ml of water or plant-based drink. Melt the cocoa slowly to preserve its aroma and properties, adding spices such as cinnamon or ginger for a holistic preparation. Breathe deeply, set your intention and let the cocoa guide you.

Directions for Use:

  • Suggested dose: Max 30 g for ceremonial sessions, 10-15 g for daily use.
  • Consult a doctor if you are pregnant or have heart conditions.
  • Drink water before and after to aid absorption.

    Eccezionale!

    Lenca è molto saporito, ma reso ancora più gustoso dalla professionalità, competenza e cortesia di Elisa e di tutta la Vaicacao.
    Continuo ad ordinarne per le Cerimonie che organizzo e non è mai una sopresa, ma sempre una garanzia!

    Grazie!

    È un anno ormai che acquisto il cacao cerimoniale e lo trovo un ottimo prodotto
    Ad ogni spedizione poi, all'interno del pacco, sempre un biglietto scritto a mano per ringraziare dell'acquisto. Assieme al cacao giunge come una coccola

    Cacao di qualità e ottimo servizio

    Il cacao è meraviglioso e il servizio di vendita online molto efficiente. Ho avuto bisogno di alcune informazioni e mi hanno risposto subito. È molto interessante seguire su Instagram i loro viaggi nelle piantagioni.
