Ceremonial Cacao from the Sacred Land of Maya

Medicine of remembrance - cacao Satkara Temple offers comes from the Sacred Land of Maya in Guatemala. Found in a valley covered with a much variety of trees: coffee, zapotillos, bananas and many others. Our Cacao comes from small family and been harvested in Suchutepequez region in Guatemala. There are four springs, embedded the mountain jungle, facing the Pacific Ocean. The farm remained organic because they never had enough money to buy the fertilizers recommended as a norm in that region. 

This cacao brings a deep bitterness with coffee and banana accents and exceeds the largest fat content because of the abundance of water in the area.

​

We feel so blessed to bring this medicine to you and support Guatemalan family. They grow and harvest cacao with all their heart and high value of the sacredness of the plant. 

​

Once seeds are harvested and fermented for 10 days in boxes covered with banana leaves family womens  process the seeds by hand. They roast the seeds, peel them and process cacao into a cacao paste on the ancient stone 'mesa'. Hand peeling allows the women to ensure that each bean is in the perfect state and has been blessed. 

The area is not far from the Sacred Lake Atitlan and our cacao charges the energy from the lake. People come to the lake for healing from all over the world. Cacao is the medicine from the lake. Lake Atitlan is one of the strongest healing vortexes int he world and we have the opportunity to receive its healing from cacao.
