Our production is sustainable,
both social and environmentally.
We preserve the Rainforest.
We are helping Brazil’s Cacao production regain the recognition for its high level of quality.
THE ORIGIN
Our cacao comes from Fazenda Santa Rita, located at Mata Atlântica, one of the Rain Forests with the largest biodiversity on the planet. The Cacao trees grow and produce at our “Terroirs” under the shade of many native and rare trees, some of which famous for their exquisite hardwoods. Among them, the Potumuju, a majestic tree that can reach up to 75 Feet in height. This rare tree names one of our three valleys, where the Pratinhas River quietly runs with crystal clear waters.
THE FARMERS
Our families have been growing Cacao since the early 1900’s and now, through novel practices and techniques, we are helping to re-write Bahia’s Cacao history.

OUR CACAO
Our cacao varieties are derived from hybrid Forastero and Trinitario species. We also have the unique amelonado Low-Amazon variety called Pará, natural of Brazil. They are now being separated by lots in our Terroirs, to preserve the unique qualities of each one.
We created our own unique harvest and post-harvest protocols to maintain the high standards and consistency of our processed Cacao. All the way from hand-picking the ripe cacao pods from our orchards, the selection of the right beans, the perfect fermentation time for each variety and the sun drying at our new solar decks with custom designed sliding mesh drawers.
We also source wet cacao from neighboring farms to be processed at our farm.
