Rooted in tradition. Made for your everyday moments of stillness.
From Peru, with reverence
A sacred crop, carried through generations
In Peru, cacao has long been held as sacred. Small family farmers and indigenous communities have tended it for generations, working alongside the land rather than against it, and harvesting it as an act of gratitude for the earth and the life it holds.
The methods are old ones, handed down from elder to child. Even as deforestation and modern pressures reach the region, these growers continue to protect their traditions, and that care is what you taste in every cup.
This is our original and most loved cacao, adored for its deep, velvety, smooth flavor. To us, it is the most beautiful ceremonial cacao there is: honoring a rich cultural heritage while tasting truly unforgettable.
Now as an instant powder, still truly ceremonial grade.
Gently processed and never exposed to high heat, our cacao is ground by hand into a fine powder that dissolves easily, so your ritual takes only a moment.
No pot, no stove, no chopping blocks of cacao. Our powder dissolves right in your mug, in seconds.

Not all cacao is created equal.
Our cacao begins with Chuncho, an ancient heirloom cacao variety native to Peru.
Grown in the high Amazon basin and Andean foothills near Cusco, Chuncho cacao is celebrated for its naturally complex flavor, with delicate floral, fruity, and nutty notes and minimal bitterness.
Ceremonial cacao is traditionally enjoyed as part of intentional rituals, gatherings, and moments of reflection.
Unlike typical cocoa powder, full-fat ceremonial cacao retains its natural cacao butter and is prepared into a rich, satisfying beverage.
At KRISTI SPIRAL, we believe a ritual doesn't need to be complicated.
Sometimes it's simply preparing a warm cup, putting your phone down, and taking a few moments for yourself.
