Our cacao is harvested on the Pacific coast of Guatemala. Our blend is the result of a selection from various local farmers who preserve their Criollo cacao trees, who look after their cacao plantations organically (without chemical fertilizers).
Our cacao grows in the foothills of the volcanoes of Atitlan and Tolimán, in the villages of Suchitepequez, Cerro de las flores. The aroma of our cacao is soft in the mouth, with floral notes and powerful earthy flavours in the end.
The consumption of ceremonial cacao belongs to an ancient culture and tradition. This is why Lavalove Cacao is committed to providing ceremonial cacao and treating it as a sacred food and a medicine.
Its production is aligned with respect for the environment, including roasting, grinding and biodegradable packaging.
LavaLove Ceremonial Cacao
Our mission is to rescue the wisdom of the ancient Mayan practice. It is important to us to bring the awareness and the importance of sacred circles back into our society.
Our call is to educate people from any background to connect with the origin of cacao and make good use of this sacred heart medicine, making the knowledge of its values available as well as the physical benefits that it has for our bodies.
We want to provide the best ceremonial cacao produced in Guatemala and maintain the highest quality of this medicine. We believe this is a tool for all teachers, ceremonialists and artists that want to incorporate the heart medicine in their lives.
The vision for Lavalove is to share cacao throughout the world, reaching all continents, making it available worldwide. We also aim to bring new opportunities for those who feel the call to work with this sacred medicine in their communities.
