Gone Green mayan grown organic cacao nibs

This unique heirloom blend of Criollo-Trinitario cacao has an earthy and robust flavor profile with notes of caramel and pineapple. Grown by independent Mayan farmers in the southern Jungles of Belize these cacao nibs come from fertile soil with a rich chocolate producing history. This wonderful blend is the 6th cacao variety in the world to be given heirloom status by the Fine Cacao Association, making it one of the rarest and most sought after sources of cacao on Earth. Over 100 people in the U.S. alone were on a waiting list for the cacao beans that these nibs were made from and after indulging in a handful or two it is easy to see why!
