Ora Ceremonial Cacao -

A luxurious drinking chocolate made from 100% pure cacao.

Uplift. Energize. Nourish.

Ora pure cacaos are made from a single ingredient, organic cacao beans, that are minimally processed to create a user-friendly cacao disc for eating or making a cup of liquid cacao. While each pure cacao is the same ingredient, each has a different flavor and energetic profile that showcases cacao in all its uniqueness. They offer one of the widest selections of 100% cacaos in the US, directly and ethically traded with small farmers across a number of indigenous communities. Unlike other companies that may have a single 100% cacao offering in their lineup of otherwise sweetened products, they specialize in 100% cacao.

Enhanced 100% Ceremonial Cacao

Enhanced cacaos are more than a “flavor”. Each one is an entirely unique experience of cacao as a medicine, bringing potent medicinal and energetic qualities. Through their custom process and global sourcing, they grind only the highest quality whole food ingredients into our 100% cacaos. Due to the vasodilating and cardiac stimulant properties of the cacao base, it acts as an optimal delivery mechanism for the superfoods. These are a beautiful way to expand your ceremony beyond our pure cacaos and very highly reviewed!

What Makes Our Cacao Ceremonial Grade?

Ceremonial Cacao refers to a premium grade, pure cacao that is ethically sourced from small family farms practicing regenerative agroforestry. Ceremonial cacao is made from a single ingredient, whole cacao beans, with nothing added or removed. You drinking cacao with intention and gratitude is part of it too! 

Oaxacan Spice

On some days you just need a little extra celebration and motivation, and this enhanced ceremonial cacao elevates you quickly as our blend of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and cayenne get your circulation pulsing. The spices are warming and quicken the effect of the cacao, making it a cold weather favorite, but we'll happily drink this one even when it's warm out.

Ancient peoples of Central & South America loved drinking their chocolate hot and spicy rather than sugary. This is a modern interpretation of ancient Mayan drinking chocolate honoring our Zapotec elder Maria. She taught us the time-honored ways of chocolate making in Oaxaca by roasting cacao beans over on open fire on a clay comal, carefully hand peeling the cacao beans, and then grinding the cacao with spices on a metate (hand stone grinder). Through this special cacao, we give gratitude to the roots of cacao ceremony.
