Drinking cacao (also known as ceremonial cacao) is not hot chocolate. - think of it more like coffee. It has the rich dark nuanced flavors and terroir of  bean-to-bar craft chocolate. 

Moksha 100% cacao paste is the ultimate superfood:Cacao is a nutrient rich plant full of antioxidants and minerals such as iron, zinc, magnesium, chromium, manganese, and calcium. Cacao is an ancient superfood that was considered “the food of the gods” by Mesoamericans. Cacao contains mind boosting compounds like theobromine, and phenethylamine, and anandamide. Theobromine (Theo=Food, broma=gods) is mild cardiovascular stimulant known for its heart opening qualities. Phenylethylamine (PEA) is most often referred to as the “love chemical.” Anandamide isknown as the “bliss molecule” for the role it plays in producing feelings of happiness. These joy-inducing chemicals connect people holding ceremony.

There are many ways to enjoy drinking cacao;  combine the cacao paste with water, milk, a milk alternative and your favorite sweetener as a nice alternative to afternoon coffee or gather your friends and host your own cacao ceremony.

Although there is no official definition for "ceremonial grade cacao" we believe that the cacao product can be labeled “ceremonial” if it is organic, ethically-sourced, and made from minimally processed from high-quality Criollo or Trinitario beans. We make our 100% cacao paste from Zorzal Cacao. The rich depths of the Zorzal Estate profile are perfect for drinking cacao; the palate starts with citrus fruits and ends with toasted almonds. Make your own our own recipe and send it to us for our next blog!

Tasting Notes: mild notes of citrus, nutty finish, toasted almond, satin chocolate, hints of cherry-berry, sparkly crisp texture, no bitterness.
