MAYA HOT CHOCOLATE - ANCHO CHILLI & ALLSPICE - 150G 

Maya Hot Chocolate is made from stone-ground Tabasqueño cacao beans, delicately spiced with ancho chilli, allspice berries and annatto seeds.

The Mayas were cultivating cacao over 4000 years ago. Our recipe, inspired by them and based on the ingredients that would have been available to them at the time. The Tabasqueño bean, grown in the Selva Zoque in Southern Mexico, is a wild hybrid of the Criollo bean originating from the Maya times and the more modern amelonado bean. We combine these fruity beans with ancho chilli to add gentle heat and dried fruit flavours. Allspice berries add a hint of cinnamon and clove, while annatto seeds impart a warm reddish colour and earthy note.

Enjoy this hot chocolate knowing that the cacao is sourced by Agrofloresta, an organization that has social, economic and environmental positive impacts.

All products in the lever tins are 100% recyclable in household bins.
