Customer photo review of Ceremonial Cacao Bar - 100% Pure Arriba Nacional

I love this cacao. My favourite is a mug of hot clean oat milk with cacao melted in. But I also mix it in my porridge sometimes and that is delicious! I’ve tried a few different suppliers and Pachakuti is the best. It’s creamy and indulgent whilst being super healthy. What’s not to like!

Customer photo review of Artisan Drops | Pure Arriba Nacional Ceremonial Cacao

Two things - firstly, customer service second to none! My order of the new drops was left in the sun by out postie and within 2 days a new pack appeared. Move over Waitrose! Second, the new drops, while costing a little more, are definitely easier to melt into a drink. This was a gift for my daughter but she was happy to share. Incredible taste with oat milk and a shake of cinnamon. Huge thanks x

I am in love with this! I wanted to change from the brand I have previously bought and a friend recommended Pachakuti so I thought I’d try. I absolutely love it! It is really smooth, tasty and just feels amazing to drink. I am converted and this will be the first bag of many.❤️😉

Customer photo review of Arriba Nacional Ceremonial Grade Cacao - Artisan Drops

Absolutely love this cacao. It’s become my favourite way to start the day, a small ritual that helps me slow down, open my heart, and support myself before the day begins. It fits so easily into my life, is simple to make, and tastes incredible… so smooth, rich, and full of flavour. You can really feel the quality in every cup.

I tried a few ceremonial cacaos, and love them all. But this one has a very special flavour I cannot put my finger on it, tastes like magic. Not even tempted to sweeten it. Bar far the best I’ve tried.

Customer photo review of Arriba Nacional Ceremonial Grade Cacao

I really enjoyed this pachakuti cacao experience. The ceromonial grade there is a difference with the standard raw cacao powder which makes the experience special. There is a lovely rich depth of flavour and a silky texture, And there is a wonderful fragrance when packet is opened. There is a feeling of calm and alertness. I use 1/2 cup plant milk and 1 cup water with some dates or maple syrup, some days vanilla or rosewater. With either a little chilli, cayenne or cinnamon, maybe a pinch of celtic or himalayan salt sometimes. I like the quality love and care that has gone into producing the cacao. The ethical sourcing and farming practices. And supporting the indigenous/tribal peoples. I look forward to trying a ceromonial dose experience and will read the books about this.

This was my first time trying this brand, I loved the story and ethical approach. I had my first cup of the cacao on the full moon lunar eclipse on March 3rd and I couldn’t have chosen a more perfect time. It was rich and smooth with a creaminess that just melted you away as you drank it .. easily the best cacao I’ve had. Thank you so much Pachakuti ❤️

Customer photo review of Arriba Nacional Ceremonial Grade Cacao

I’ve been working with Pachakuti Cacao and it’s been such a beautiful experience. The cacao feels really clean, grounding and heart-opening without being overwhelming. The taste is rich and smooth, and it sits gently in the body. It’s supported me in both quiet personal moments and ceremony space, helping me feel more present and connected. You can really feel the care behind it. Grateful to have found this one 🤎✨

Customer photo review of Arriba Nacional Ceremonial Grade Cacao

This cacao feels like an invitation back to the heart. Silky, smooth, and nourishing, with a taste that feels both comforting and expansive. Every time I drink it, I feel more open, more connected, and more anchored in myself. A beautiful companion for ceremony, reflection, or simply intentional moments.

Customer photo review of Witoca Café Sumak – Amazonian Specialty Robusta

I was genuinely amazed by the taste the first time I drank Pachakuti Cacao. It’s smooth, rich and beautifully balanced, without the bitterness I’ve experienced with other cacao. The quality is immediately noticeable. Beyond the flavour, it has a grounding, heart opening effect that feels calm and nourishing. I now recommend Pachakuti Cacao to all my clients, as well as friends and family, it’s become my go to and something I truly trust!

Customer photo review of Arriba Nacional Ceremonial Grade Cacao

I have worked with Mana Cacao for many years ..personally and in Group Ceremonies and when I first tasted Pachakuti Cacao I was blown away by its texture and taste . It is rich yet smooth and velvet like in consistency. I instantly fell in love… and very quickly became an ambassador . Knowing the history and ethics behind the company I am an advocate for this Cacao - working so closely with the farmers and tribes . And organically grown .. I love to share with my community and drink it daily for myself . Being deep in perimenopause it is a nourishing self care practice that brings me home to my heart and womb and grounds me with our beautiful Pachamama x thank you team x thank you to the tribes for their beautiful medicine ., thank you Mother Earth x
