At Sacred Taste, we craft more than Cacao, we craft Connection.
We are a premium cacao company dedicated to crafting the finest quality, Wild-Crafted, ethically sourced, and sustainably made Cacao.
At Sacred, we believe that Mother Earth is the most sacred of all. She gives us the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food that nourishes us, and the ground we walk upon. She is home, and it is our deepest responsibility to honour and protect her.
We feel it is imperative to our own existence to care for the Earth by cultivating deeper connection and adopting rituals and practices that bring us closer - to ourselves, to each other, and to the land that sustains us.
It is our mission to preserve the land and protect the culture from which our cacao comes, while guiding people to reconnect to the Earth and their purpose, through the remembrance of what is sacred.
From seed to serve, from belly to bin, we’ve ensured that our wild-crafted cacao uplifts and enriches every life it touches. We proudly support the Ashaninka tribes in cultivating the finest heirloom criollo cacao beans, ethically sourced and regeneratively grown - so that everyone can enjoy cacao in its purest, most purposeful form.
Sacred Taste is a producer of premium, organic, gluten-free, refined sugar-free, preservative-free, vegan Drinking Cacao. Founded in Melbourne, Australia, we hand-blend wild Amazonian cacao with plant-based, whole-food ingredients to create a unique and delicious range of nourishing cacao elixirs.
Rooted in wellness and sustainability, we are devoted to delivering the most delicious, nutritious, and planet-honouring Drinking Cacao - nourishing the lives of all it touches, while protecting the Indigenous lands from which it grows.
We don’t just make cacao. We make ceremony. We make community. We make change.
Our Sacred Journey
In August 2019, we travelled to South America in search of the origins of Cacao. It was our mission to go straight to source and discover exactly where Cacao comes from, how it is made and the impact it has on the local people and environment.
After spending weeks travelling through the high and lowlands of Peru, our journey led us into the centre of the Amazon basin and to the birthplace of Cacao. After a 15 hour bus ride and 6 hour canoe ride, we reached the heart of the Amazon jungle where we met with the oldest Indigenous tribes in South America, the Ashaninka. Here, we learnt about the importance of Cacao, the essence of its spirit and the Ashaninka way of life.
The Ashaninka
“Kametsa Asaika” which translates to “The Good Life” are eight principles the Ashaninka live by. They relate to culture, food, land security, harmony with nature, peace, sustainability, health, education and living as Ashaninkasanori. Currently under threat by the narcotics trade, terrorism, deforestation and illegal mining, the Ashaninka tribes are begging to commercialise Cacao as a means to preserve their land and protect their way of life. At Sacred, it’s our philosophy to leave the place better than we found it, and leave people better than we found them. We are proud to be supporting the Ashaninka in achieving this mission.
Our Ethos
From seed to serve and belly to bin, we’ve ensured that our cacao improves the lives of everyone it touches. We support the Ashaninka tribes in cultivating only the finest, heirloom criollo cacao beans that are ethically sourced and sustainably made to bring you the joy, happiness, peace and harmony that each cup of cacao can provide. It’s our mission to preserve the land and protect the culture from where our cacao comes from whilst helping the western world reconnect to the planet and their purpose through remembering what is Sacred.
Our Purpose
Through our efforts, we aim to preserve and protect Indigenous lands in the Amazon Rainforest and seek to bridge the gap between the ancient and modern, the spiritual and the material, the natural and the digital.
We hope you enjoy the delicious benefits of your cup of Sacred, and sip mindfully knowing that each serve is made with love and contributing to the health and wellbeing of the planet.
“Whenever there is an imbalance between humans and nature, cacao makes its way out of the jungle to open our hearts and return the planet to a state of harmony” - Ancient Mayan Legend.
Vitality: Matcha Mint Cacao is a convenient and delicious blend. The smooth cacao flavour is beautifully complemented by a refreshing hint of mint. An enjoyable and nourishing option for any time of day.
We love that you love it! Did you know our Love Cacao is infused with rose petals to gently awaken the heart and bring a little extra love into your cup?
Great taste, warming, healthy fire chilli cacao. Husband loves it. Quick delivery, will order again.

Nothing better than a cozy cup that brings the heat and the hugs.

I love this so much ❤️ I stumbled across this 1.5yrs ago when trying to find a coffee replacement. I have been obsessed ever since! My only complaint is that it's very difficult to get if you run out before your subscription is shipped.
This absolutely warms our hearts!
Thank you for letting our cacao be part of your coffee replacement journey.
We're curious, which flavour have you been enjoying? If you ever feel like switching things up, our Vitality Cacao is a beautiful way to kickstart your day. It’s blended with mint and matcha for a fresh and energising lift!
Love the light heat with the cacao flavour. Im less bloated and sleep like a dream. At night I look forward to sitting down with my cacao drink.
Aww there's something so special about winding down with a cozy cup of cacao that supports your body and your sleep. We're happy to hear that our Cacao is part of your evening ritual. Have you tried Love Cacao? That is also great as an evening drink. May your cacao nights continue to be dreamy and nourishing
