Description

Seleno Health’s 100% Organic, single-origin, rare indigenous Uturunku Peruvian ceremonial cacao with potent and unique therapeutic properties. Scientifically researched and supported by a Callaghan Innovation research grant.

The Uturunku (Quecha language – Jaguar) in Andean cosmovision represents the Kay Pacha – the natural world of the here and now. This very rare and special ceremonial paste is hand-crafted from indigenous cacao in Tarapoto, Peru, in honour of the Uturunku. It is grown organically under the natural shade of the jungle canopy and each pod is carefully hand-selected by our artisanal farmer to ensure the quality and potency of each block they produce. Made with love and pure intention, it is blessed and provides high-vibrational energy, with reverence for Peru’s ancient ceremonial cacao traditions. From the cultural and spiritual origin of cacao – Peru.

This ceremonial cacao is like no other, with our scientific studies showing it to be ultra potent in levels of biogenic amines like tryptamine and phenylethylamine (PEA) for feelings of intense satisfaction, embodiment and spiritual awakening. It also contains high levels of tryptophan for sensations of joy and happiness.

The therapeutic and biochemical properties are like none we have ever seen before, making it ideal for ceremonial or personal journeying use. It has a strong profile of earthy, nutty and fruity flavours absorbed from the Amazonian agroforestry in which it grows. You can literally taste the jungle in this one!! It is what we would call an internalising cacao that brings embodiment, connection and puts us into the Kay Pacha – the here and now.

Why is this cacao different to other cacao powders or cacao nibs you can buy in the supermarket?

Our cacao is produced farm to table, cultivated surrounded by native jungle the way it has been done for thousands of years. Hand-picked, blessed in ceremony with reverence and supported with ancestral knowledge, education and ancient tools for you to better connect with its medicine. For those wanting connection, to be present, to feel embodied, to be balanced, happy and healthy we offer our pure ceremonial cacao direct to you to awaken your heart space. We believe one of cacao’s greatest gifts lies in her ability to bring people together and connect us to a place of love and compassion, no matter who we are or where we come from. Cacao is a gentle guide that reminds us of our indistinguishable connection to each-other, our ancestors, and all of nature. It is this remembrance, that will allow our species to truly thrive and flourish.

Cacao Sourcing

Our farmers carefully hand-select each pod to be used in ceremonial production. Pods and beans are selected by their shape, maturity, colour, aroma and size to ensure the paste is the best quality.  The native variety found in our Uturunku paste, is extremely rare that grows naturally in the Amazon, with very unique qualities… it’s never been seen before! Both varieties are very delicate, low yielding and require careful attention and support from the jungle canopy to thrive. These varieties are not used for mass production as they cannot produce on a large scale, so they are reserved for sacred use!
 
It is 100% organic shade-grown under a natural agroforestry canopy – cacao pods are porous and they absorb the aromas and energies of the plants that surround them. Neighbouring trees containing fruits like banana or papaya have the ability to infuse the flavour of the cacao and enhance the profile and sensory experience when using it in ceremony. True ceremonial cacao comes from this agroforestry environment and the cacao produced not only contains the flavours of the jungle that surround it but also the energy and vibration of the environment, further enhancing the spiritual connection of the user to the Amazonian spirit.
