Brew Like Coffee, Enjoy Like Hot Cocoa.
REFRESH YOUR ROUTINE.
Our brewing cacao brings a familiar yet unique experience to the table, offering a more chocolatey and less jittery twist on your daily ritual. We small-batch roast cacao beans to unlock their fullest flavor, tailoring roast profiles specifically for brewing rather than traditional chocolate making. After roasting, the beans are ground similar to coffee, albeit slightly coarser for the best brewing experience.
Perfect for those seeking an alternative to coffee—especially if they’re sensitive to caffeine—it offers a satisfying way to energize your day. It’s also a favorite for coffee lovers looking to add a rich, chocolatey dimension to their brew.
Packed with theobromine, a gentler and longer-lasting stimulant than caffeine, brewing cacao offers a smooth, steady lift—perfect for kickstarting your day and keeping you going without the jitters or crash. Brew it in a French press (our favorite), coffee maker, or tea infuser. Enjoy it bold and straight, mix it with coffee for a natural mocha, or add cream and sweetener for a hot chocolate vibe.

LESS JOLT, MORE JOY.
Our brewing cacao isn’t just a coffee alternative—it’s an ancient superfood, celebrated across time and cultures for its vitality-boosting antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals.
Paired with the mood-awakening power of theobromine and you have a drink that uplifts your spirit, rejuvenates your body, and fuels your day in a much more enjoyable way!
MORE THAN JUST A BREW.
Our brewing cocoa can easily become baking and cooking cocoa and is incredibly versatile in the kitchen!
Mix it into smoothies for a chocolatey superfood addition. Sprinkle it over oatmeal, yogurt or ice cream. It even works great in chili or in a steak rub! We encourage you to get creative with it!
We're big fans of the dessert varieties. Check out our Chocolate Chip Cacao Cookies and our No Bake 'CaPow' Balls (pictured here) over on our RECIPES page.
ORGANICALLY GROWN, TRANSPARENTLY SOURCED.
Our cacao is USDA Organic + Transparent Trade certified.
We are committed to organic farming practices and Transparent Trade when sourcing our cacao, which ensures fairness and clarity at every stage of the supply chain. Paying above-market prices to trusted farmers promotes sustainable livelihoods and community growth.
Transparent Trade is central to our operations, highlighting the journey from pod to palette and bean to brew. It upholds the dignity of labor and sustainability of farming, ensuring that every cup or baked good we enjoy also supports the well-being of the farmers who grow our cacao.
FROM POD TO PALATE.
When you enjoy a 'cup-a-cao,' your taste buds are experiencing the end result of one of the world's most remarkable culinary journeys: chocolate's origin story.
It all starts with the fruit that hangs from the Theobroma Cacao tree: the cacao pod. This is where the chocolate you know and love is born.
From there, our raw cacao beans are delicately roasted and meticulously ground, resulting in a creation that is then ready to be brewed and experienced.
