Ceremonial Cacao Spirit, Organic - 3 ks (3x1000 g)

Would you like to taste cacao with a unique, subtly spiced flavour?

Try Ceremonial Cacao Spirit. We have sweetened this 100% cacao for you with dried cane juice and flavoured it with carefully selected spices. You thus get a perfect cocktail of minerals, vitamins, fibre, and antioxidants, as well as a drink with an original, sweetly spiced flavour.

Indulge in a cacao ritual, experience every moment here and now, and facilitate a conscious approach to life. Every sip will bring you relaxation, allowing you to open your heart, dissolve worries and anxieties, and achieve harmony.

Thanks to the unique ratio of theobromine and caffeine, the cacao drink will gently stimulate you, with the effect being more gradual and longer-lasting than, for example, coffee. At the same time, it will improve your mood, help wash away stress and tension, sharpen your mind, and awaken your creative side.

In traditional Central American cultures, cacao is used against fatigue, to facilitate convalescence, for overall strengthening, and to support childbirth or breastfeeding. Traditionally, it contributes to normal digestion, improves immunity, alleviates the signs of ageing, and acts as an aphrodisiac.

Our ceremonial cacao comes from carefully harvested cacao beans from organic farming and is very gently processed. The prized Criollo variety is also represented in the selection of varieties. We produce it in small batches directly here at BEWIT.

### Cacao – a precious food of the gods

Theobroma cacao is a tree originating from the tropical parts of South America. Today, it is widespread throughout the tropical belt, widely cultivated in Africa (Ivory Coast, Ghana, Cameroon, and others). Its name means "food of the gods". The fruits are about 30 cm long pods, which contain seeds called cacao beans inside. And it is from these that cacao, a raw material popular all over the world, is made.

What is ceremonial cacao?

Ceremonial cacao is intended for meditative ceremonies and rituals, whether by this ritual you mean a morning moment just for yourself with a cup of delicious drink, or special cacao circles. We make it with love from high-quality organic cacao beans that have undergone gentle processing to preserve the maximum amount of beneficial substances.

Cacao ceremonies originated in the 1990s in connection with the New Age movement. They loosely follow the traditions of Central American civilisations, such as the Mayans and Aztecs. For them, cacao was a sacred and ritual raw material. It was expensive, so it was only accessible to selected high-ranking men and also served as currency.

What is the difference between chocolate and 100% cacao mass?

Cacao mass consists exclusively of ground cacao beans. It can be used pure, e.g., as ceremonial cacao, or serve as a raw material for further processing, e.g., into chocolate. This is made from cacao mass, which is tempered and supplemented with sugar, or other added ingredients.

 
### Method of use

Ceremonial cacao is traditionally prepared as a warm drink. Cut the cacao with a ceramic knife into smaller pieces and pour over the desired amount of water, or plant-based milk or herbal or spice decoction.

The liquid you pour over the cacao should be between 70 and 80 °C to preserve as many beneficial substances as possible. To dissolve and simultaneously create a rich foam, use a whisk (if you have one, a traditional Mexican molinillo), a matcha whisk, or an immersion blender.

Cacao is traditionally prepared with intention, in a space cleansed with incense (palo santo, white sage, copal, etc.), in the presence of the element of fire and music.

 
### Dosage

For 200 ml of drink you will need:
- For beginners, children, and a milder tasting drink: 15–20 g
- For full-flavoured cacao: 20–34 g
- Ceremonial dose: 34–44 g
- Generally recommended maximum daily dose: 50 g

Adhere to the recommended maximum daily dose, as you can overdose on cacao. Overdosing will manifest as headaches, very strong heart palpitations, and trembling hands. When drinking cacao, always maintain your fluid intake, as it is a diuretic.

### Recommended storage

Store in a dry, dark place. Ideally at a temperature between 14–18 °C, maximum 24 °C, protect from temperature fluctuations. Once opened, keep in a tightly sealed container – food moths love cacao.

 
### Warning

This product does not have a powdered consistency; it is a solid mass that needs to be cut or grated before use. It is not tempered chocolate. Fat and sugar blooms are natural and not a defect.

Due to the content of theobromine and caffeine in a combination whose effects can last up to 7 hours, we recommend drinking cacao rather in the morning.

Individuals with low blood pressure, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and young children should consume cacao with caution, or consult a doctor.
