KUYAY Cacao Tea
Husk cocoa 80% and cocoa nibs 20%
This sweet and tasty cocoa infusion is made with the cocoa from our fields.
After the roasting process, we peel our beans and collect the bark to produce our delicious cocoa infusion.
This way we use all our beans and get a product 0 waste!
We decided to reuse the bark thanks to the exceptional quality of our cocoa and its antioxidant, antibacterial and diuretic properties.
In addition to being a good drink for your health, it is comforting, and you can consume it at any time of the day!
Composition:
Our tea is made of 80% bark and 20% cocoa chips.
It can be consumed hot, cold, with water and any kind of milk

A Family Tradition
We're a family-owned company dedicated to cocoa cultivation, the key ingredient in our delicious chocolates. From planting and harvesting to fermentation and drying, we oversee every step of the process, ensuring traceability from cocoa bean to chocolate bar.
Nestled in Jahuanga – Bagua Grande – Amazon-Peru, our plot boasts a clonal garden with 135 native cacao varieties from the Amazon region.
Our cocoa beans come from Bagua Grande-Amazon, situated at 450 meters above sea level in northeastern Peru. The tropical forest climate and natural surroundings make it the perfect environment for cocoa cultivation. Inspired by this harmony with nature, we named our chocolate "Kuyay," meaning love and harmony in Quechua.
At Kuyay, we're proud of our organic beans and our commitment to sustainable practices that respect the land and its resources.
