The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta is one of the most revered growing regions on earth — a mountain ecosystem stewarded by four distinct Indigenous tribes who work in relationship with the land rather than on top of it. This cacao comes from there, through a supply chain 3rd Eye Cacao partners in directly.

What that buys you is aroma and mineral depth you can register the moment it hits hot water. Nothing has been stripped out to make it shelf-stable or uniform — the natural fats, the flavor and the potency are all still where the tree left them.

At a glance

  • Single-origin from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia
  • Sourced through direct partnership in the growing supply chain
  • A region stewarded by four distinct Indigenous tribes
  • Aromatic and mineral-rich, with noticeable depth in the cup
  • Minimally processed — the natural fats, flavor and potency most processing removes are kept intact
  • Made for daily ritual rather than occasional ceremony

How to use it

  • Hot water, not boiling. Aromatics are the first thing scorched off.
  • Whisk or froth until the surface is glossy and even.
  • Drink it plain the first time. Single-origin cacao is worth meeting before you sweeten it.
  • Make it at the same time each day. The maker frames this as a daily ritual you can actually keep, and that is where its value sits.
  • Store it sealed, cool and dark.

✨ Temple Tip — single origin means it will taste like somewhere

Blended cacao is engineered to taste the same every year. Single-origin is not, and a good batch tastes distinctly of its mountain. If your second bag tastes slightly different from your first, that is the point rather than a fault.

In short

The Colombian Single-Origin Cacao is a ceremonial cacao from 3rd Eye Cacao, grown in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and sourced through a direct partnership in the growing supply chain. The region is stewarded by four distinct Indigenous communities, and the cacao is offered under four sourcing names: Kogui, Arhuaco, Las Dalias and Gregorio. It is minimally processed, so the natural fats and aromatics are retained, and it is prepared in hot rather than boiling water, whisked or frothed until the surface is glossy and even. It sells for $115.00. Being single-origin rather than blended for consistency, batches from different harvests taste noticeably different from one another.
