Dalileo, Heirloom Criollo Cacao Nibs
Description
Discover the rare essence of the world’s most prized cacao variety, delivered in crunchy nib form, perfect for your mind, body and spirit.
Dalileo is rooted in a family-owned farm in Guatemala’s Polochic Valley (Finca El Porvenir), where abandoned coffee land was transformed into a vibrant cacao forest, dedicated to the revival of 100% heirloom Criollo cacao.
Dalileo nibs are exceptional because ...
-
The cacao trees grow in a biodiverse, shade-rich agroforestry system that respects nature’s rhythms, allowing the beans to mature fully and retain their medicinal potency.
-
Each bean is hand-selected for the white-to-light coloured Criollo variety, among the rarest cacao types on the planet.
-
After harvest, natural fermentation, sun-drying and minimal processing protect the delicate flavour profile: smooth, aromatic, less bitter.
-
These nibs deliver the full richness of the bean, cocoa butter, potent antioxidants, deep earthy-forest notes and vibrant mineral tones.
