Cacaua
01
The harvest
Growers cut the pods by hand, one at a time, once each one has properly ripened.
Cacaua
Pure, natural cacao from Colombia
Good cacao, from people we know.
Natural fine-aroma cacao, as whole roasted beans. A gentle lift, nothing like coffee.

From tree to bean
Four steps, nearly all of them in the hands of the farming families we work with. That is how a natural, fine-aroma cacao comes together.
02
Fermenting and drying
The beans ferment for several days in wooden boxes, then dry in the sun. More than any other step, this is where the aroma is decided.
03
The roast
We roast each batch low and slow, just enough to wake the aroma without burying where it came from.
04
The bean
What comes out is a fine-aroma bean, clean and whole, ready for your cup or for making chocolate.
Slow-roasted, as whole beans.
Natural cacao grown by Colombian farming families. No sugar, no additives, no colourings.
- Ordered over WhatsApp
- Shipped anywhere in Colombia
- Shipping paid by the buyer
Roasted beans, whole, nothing else.
It tastes like pure chocolate: bitter, intense, with nothing dressing it up. Whole beans, hand-sorted and slow-roasted in their own husk.
Snack
Peel and eat as they are. Pure cacao, no sugar. Magnesium and antioxidants.
Infusion
Crush, steep in hot water for 5 minutes and strain. Gentle, nothing like coffee.

On the farm, where the cacao grows.
This started between friends!
Cacaua grew out of a group of friends who love good cacao and decided to take it more seriously. We buy straight from farming families in Antioquia and the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta who grow it naturally: we pay a fair price and keep only the cacao we would drink at home. Behind it is me, Roger, plus the farm people doing the work up in the mountains.
