It might be closest to the high quality cacao cultivated by the Maya centuries ago. Genetically it is a rare criollo variety of white seeds. José Maria continues to cultivate this cacao that was carefully selected by his great grandparents. It is a very delicate cacao to grow and genetically unique. Because the farm is so small and this cacao rarely exists anymore we are really happy to share this small batch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cacao is much lighter in taste than you might be used to. It is very low in bitterness and has a rich and soft taste. Just making this cacao pure on a water base is delicious and soft.

Both are white criollo cacao, but grown in different places in the same region. In the dropdown you can choose between the Cacahoatán or Xoconochco. They are very similar, but have a slightly different taste. Just as every year harvest will have slight differences. Both are very small and limited batches, which is why we have to wait for the cacao to grow again when its sold out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCacahoatán origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cacahoatán, Chiapas, Mexico\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCacahoatán taste notes: very soft, earthy, low bitterness, with hints of tobacco, caramel and nuts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXoconochco origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soconusco, Chiapas, Mexico\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eXoconochco taste notes: very soft, earthy, low bitterness, some acidity, with hints of tobacco, caramel and nuts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChiapas was an important centre of Maya civilization in pre-colonial Mesoamerica.
