Single-Origin Brewing Cacao
From bean to brew to you.
Welcome to third wave cacao.
We’re here to elevate and expand the coffee shop experience by offering Salt Lake City-roasted premium brewing cacao.
We're celebrating chocolate at its source.
Like specialty coffee, we value exceptional beans, thoughtful sourcing, careful preparation, and the distinct flavors of each origin. The result is cacao with greater depth, transparency, and respect for everyone involved—from grower to cup.
We partner with farmers and nature stewards in West Papua, Indonesia; Anamalai, India; and more. They grow some of the world’s best cacao so we can help kickstart the third-wave cacao movement.
If all this sounds like your cup of tea (a cup you’d like to switch out for cacao), drop us a line! We’d love to hear from you and explore how we can find a place for brewed cacao on your menu.
Direct from the Indonesian archipelago.
As pure as it gets.
Market Opportunities
For cafes & cacao
You’re missing out on half the population.
Approximately half of Salt Lake’s population doesn’t drink coffee (or tea or matcha!) for religious reasons.
Hot chocolate and steamers are great, but if you don’t want a sugar-laden beverage and want to feel like you’re truly taking part in the cafe experience, your options are slim.
Cacao is as pure as it comes and can be swapped for coffee in most recipes. Most importantly, everyone can drink it. For an inclusive coffee shop experience, serve cacao.
Get ahead of the curve. Start a movement.
The coffee substitute market is estimated to reach $18 billion by 2033.
It’s currently valued at $13 billion.
These alternatives are sparse at cafes, Most are sold only in direct-to-consumer options, often via e-commerce.
Be a trendsetter, help lead the alternative third wave cacao movement.
A premium product, innovation in a cup.
Natural, pure coffee alternative for individuals trying to move away from caffeine or looking for naturally sugar-free options.
Antioxidants, nutrients, theobromine, and fiber—all the best chocolate has to offer.
Prepared and served just like coffee.
A prime AM or PM option.
