Seleno Health Amaru Ceremonial Cacao Nibs - 250 grams

Seleno Health Organic Criollo Raw Cacao Nibs are 100% pure, organic and, single-origin, directly from the farm in Peru.
 
Criollo cacao trees, loosely known as “native” in Spanish, are the closest related to the original cacao trees from South America and are considered the finest cacao.
 
This variety of cacao is often used to improve the quality of chocolate and other cacao-based products, and many chocolate connoisseurs take note of the Criollo percentage in cacao-based products. While all cacao trees require particular shade and climate in order to grow, Criollo cacao trees are especially difficult to cultivate. They are more fragile than the other varieties of cacao, and easily vulnerable to pests and disease, resulting in poorer yields. The growth of Criollo cacao trees is limited to Mexico, Central America, Venezuela, and the Caribbean Islands and makes up about 3% of cacao bean production in the world.
 
Our cacao is fermented and sun-dried, before being milled and pressed to separate the butter from the cacao mass, following ancient traditions.
 
It is packed with anandamide, tryptophan, PEA, polyphenols, magnesium, zinc, and other essential minerals, with a beautiful rich aromatic flavor.
 
We personally source our beans from Peru to find the most potent, therapeutic & flavor-rich cacao possible.
 
Every batch is tested and shown to be ultra-low in heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and arsenic.
 
We go beyond fair trade and work exclusively with one family farm that uses sustainable natural agroforestry practices.
 
Our ethically sourced cacao is free of slavery and other horrible practices that plague most cacao products.
 
Our cacao is artisanally grown, fermented, and dried (below 118 degrees), while maintaining neutral acidity to provide the best aroma and taste.
 
Connect with our cacao and let it open your heart and feed your body.
