MOOD: FOCUSED, CLARIFYING, UPLIFTING
USES: STUDYING & TAKING ACTION
Organic 100% Cacao - Ethical - Regenerative - High Flavanol - Coffee Alternative - Better Energy - Heavy Metals Tested
This first ceremonial cacao from Africa is grown amidst the laughter and close relationships of thriving village life. Amidst extensive rice and banana crops, seven hundred certified organic farmers within the biodiverse Kilombero Valley grow cacao for Kokoa Kamili, who takes utmost care to ferment and dry the cacao to exacting standards that offer the best quality on the continent. From our farmers in Tanzania, "Asante" - this is Swahili for thank you!
This ceremonial cacao comes from 700 small (0.5-2 acre) organic family farms in the Kilombero Valley, which borders Udzungwa Mountains National Park, a spot known for its biodiversity. Our partners here are Kokoa Kamili (Quality Cacao in Swahili), and their model is inspired by our partners in Belize. In its first three years, Kokoa Kamili farmers have received the highest prices for cacao in Tanzania. The cacao from this region is exceptional as a pure dark chocolate as it has a higher cacao butter content than average, resulting in a silky smoothness.
Directions: Combine about 25 cacao discs with a touch of sweetener, or drink pure. Add 3/4 cup (6oz) hot water, tea, or milk (~180°F). Use a blender or electric frother to mix for 10 seconds. You can of course adjust this recipe to use more or less discs. And you don’t have to make a drink, you can also eat the chips just as they are. We don’t recommend using coconut milk because the combination with cacao gives about 1 in 20 people a stomach ache. It’s also good to know that with dairy milk, the dairy protein (casein) can bind to flavonoids and decrease their bioavailability so overall it reduces antioxidant absorption.
Ingredients: Organic Cacao Beans from Tanzania. That's all! No sweeteners.
