Description
Light yet irresistibly aromatic, this certified organic cacao husk tisane captures the comforting warmth of pure cacao in its most natural form.
Traditionally enjoyed throughout cacao-growing regions across Central and South America, cacao husk tea is prized for its rich aroma and feather-light body, offering the comfort of hot chocolate without heaviness, dairy, or bitterness. Its slow-released chocolatey notes and toasted cocoa depth make it a cup you will reach for all day.
This tisane is perfect for brewing by the pot or jug and sipping warm or chilled from morning through evening.
Each batch is packed in small batches at our gluten-free Sydney facility to preserve its velvety cocoa bouquet and mellow roasted sweetness.
