Exceptional Flavor · Real Effects · True Origin
Fine aroma cacao, the rarest tier there is, single-origin from the Polochic Valley, grown by Q’eqchí families and made into pure cacao just hours from the trees that bore it. One region. One harvest. Nothing added, nothing hidden.

Shave finely for faster melting.

Fine aroma
“Fine aroma” is to cacao what specialty is to coffee: the top tier, only a small share of the world’s harvest earns the name.
Fairness
We buy straight from the cooperative and pay the families ourselves, with no chain of middlemen taking a cut on the way. We set that price on purpose, and we held it when the world price collapsed, because a price that moves with the market is not one a family can build a year around.
With the forest
Regenerative: grown under native canopy, no clearing, no monocrops. (Regenerative, not certified-organic, we’d rather tell the truth than sell a sticker.)
At this strength, what’s not in your cacao matters as much as what is. Every batch is lab-tested for heavy metals by an independent Guatemalan lab. We don’t call our cacao “heavy-metal free.” We call it tested, because that’s the honest word.
Artisanal editions
From the cacao we drink, the chocolate we make. Small-batch, bean-to-bar craft chocolate from the very same single origin. Tempered for a clean snap and a slow, luscious melt.
