A look back at our journey to Cusco, Peru. 🌱

Earlier this year, we travelled to the birthplace of our legendary Chuncho cacao alongside growers, makers, partners, and our local Bean Team.

From walking through ancestral cacao forests to harvesting, tasting, and learning alongside growers, we experienced firsthand the knowledge, biodiversity, and dedication that make this rare cacao so extraordinary. More than a trip, it was a reminder that exceptional chocolate begins at origin, and that regeneration is rooted in people, forests, and long-term relationships.

A powerful reminder: to taste the rare, we must help preserve it.

Grateful for every conversation, every lesson, and every person who made this experience possible. 💚

And by working with 10 rare cacao varietals grown in cacao forests, we help preserve genetic diversity and protect their pure flavours.

Earlier this month, we had the special honour of hosting the very first event of our Growers’ Club in Sindelfingen. Thank you to everyone who attended for making this day truly special 🤎

From cultivating the beans to processing and crafting the finished chocolate, Growers’ Chocolate is made 100% in its country of origin, Peru. It is produced in Piura in close collaboration with our long-term partner, the cacao cooperative.

Why the Original Beans Growers’ Club?
Because we believe real impact happens together. Growers’ Chocolate stands for a regenerative future of cacao, built through shared commitment. Together with farmers, makers, and partners, we are shaping a path where exceptional chocolate and respect for people and nature at origin go hand in hand.

Crafted from the extremely rare Amazonas Bright cacao, Growers’ Chocolate reveals notes of vibrant tropical fruits, coconut, citrus, and sweet almond blossom with hints of marzipan.

We have some exciting news for everyone trying to start 2026 on a healthy note: did you know that dark chocolate might actually help you age more slowly? 🧬✨

A new study from December 2025 by King’s College London looked at nearly 1,700 people and found that higher levels of theobromine, a natural compound in cacao, were linked to a younger biological age. While your actual age can’t be reversed, dark chocolate might help your body function like it’s a little younger than your years suggest.

Even though sugar can be problematic, our 100% range, Cusco 100%, Arhuaco 100%, and Virunga Cacao Nibs, is completely sugar-free, full of pure cacao flavour, and perfect as a mindful, heart-healthy treat this January. Use them to top your dishes, prepare a soul-warming drinking chocolate, or enjoy as a snack. Your cacao habit is now backed by science. 🤎

Check out our recipe page for inspiring creations with our 100% range.
