At Cacao Adventures, sourcing cacao is more than just a transaction—it’s a relationship built on respect, collaboration, and long-term impact. We work directly with farming communities in remote regions of Peru who care for wild and native cacao strains, passed down through generations.
One of our most meaningful relationships is with the Awajún community in the Amazon. We don’t just buy cacao—we help during harvest and post-harvest, and maintain an open dialogue with the community leaders, including the Apu (chief). This close relationship ensures transparency, consistency, and a shared vision for protecting ancestral knowledge and preserving biodiversity.
We also ensure that we purchase cacao from these communities, offering a stable and dignified source of income. Our difference? While many brands source from brokers or co-ops, we go to the source. Jose, our co-founder, visits these communities at least once a year to ensure consistent quality and offer training in fermentation and drying techniques that elevate the quality of their cacao. By improving these methods, farmers can command higher prices—and we pay above-market rates to honor that work.
We also keep our supply chain short and intentional. That means fewer hands between the farmer and your cup. This not only ensures traceability and freshness—it reflects our commitment to real relationships and real impact.
Because when you enjoy a cup of Cacao Adventures, you’re not just tasting high-quality cacao—you’re supporting a better way of doing business. A way rooted in integrity, transparency, and heart.
