origins story

The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia is a place where all of the Earth's biomes are found from the Caribbean Sea to the rainforest to desert to the glacial peaks. Here, global environmental change is closely monitored and kept in balance by its caretakers, the Arhuacos. They are descendants of the Tairona, an ancient civilization dating back to the 1st century AD. The Tairona grew cacao and prepared it as a drink. The Arhuacos today live a traditional village lifestyle led by their spirtual leaders, the Mamos. They make a livelihood from agriculture and hand-woven wool mochilas and live off the land. When the Arhuacos moved back to their spiritual land by the sea, they found their ancestral cacao still intact and have propagated it. We craft a chocolate from this ancient cacao that celebrates its purity as a high percentage milk chocolate with fresh cacao nibs on the back, so you can taste its rich heritage.

Meet Mamo Hernán

The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, or the "Heart of the World," is sacred to the Arhuaco people. Mamo Hernán stewards the community's cacao with reverence, adhering to principles that honor its spiritual significance. By preserving native varieties and avoiding monoculture, Arhuacos maintain a harmonious relationship with the Earth. For the Arhuacos, cacao is more than a crop – it's a connection to their ancestral territory, which they heal and protect through devoted care.
