VAICACAO ULÙA Honduras 400g Ceremonial

👐 Our Commitment:

We believe in the unique charm of the cacao ritual and its deep roots in Mesoamerican culture. That’s why we’ve crafted a pure cacao paste, stone-ground using artisanal methods, preserving a coarse texture and authentic aroma. This is a sensory and nutritional experience designed to unveil every aspect of this natural superfood.

🌳 Origin:

This fine cacao is the result of the dedication of 86 small-scale farmers from the Cholomá region in Cortés, within the stunning landscapes of Honduras. Each bean comes from regenerative agroforestry systems that combine organic practices with innovative harvesting and post-harvesting techniques. The result is a true treasure that embodies the richness of Mesoamerican heritage.
