MINDFULNESS – 92% Ceremonial Cacao + Reishi, Ashwagandha and Spices – KAICAO 200g
Product detailed description
MINDFULNESS is KAICAO 92% ceremonial cacao with reishi, ashwagandha and warming spices. You whisk it into hot water or plant milk and drink it as a thick, unsweetened cup, most often in the evening or at the point in the day when you need to sit down for twenty minutes and deal with nothing at all.
The base is cacao beans from the Hacienda Limón estate in Ecuador. They are lightly roasted, stone-ground for two days and matured for two months, which keeps the flavour full and earthy and leaves the cocoa butter where it belongs. Every 20 g serving carries 1050 mg of reishi and 900 mg of ashwagandha.
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is a mushroom with a long history of use in East Asia and it brings a woody, faintly bitter note to the blend. Ashwagandha is traditionally used in Ayurveda as an adaptogen during mental and physical strain, and in the cup you pick it up as an earthy, mildly spiced trace. Cinnamon, star anise and nutmeg round the whole thing into a warm, spiced-sweet profile without a single gram of added sugar. The 200 g pack makes 10 servings of 20 g.

KAICAO: stone-ground ceremonial cacao
KAICAO is the brand of Madrid chocolatier Ida Talmore, who works bean-to-bar: from choosing the beans on a specific plantation to the finished product in one workshop. KAICAO ceremonial cacao is a full-fat cacao powder made from lightly roasted beans that are stone-ground for two days and then aged for two months. The result is earthy with a light floral note, and it is prepared as a thick hot drink rather than the sweet cocoa of childhood.
The beans come from a single Ecuadorian plantation, Hacienda Limón; the MEXICAN variety uses washed Lavado beans from Tabasco in Mexico. Nothing is sweetened with sugar and no emulsifiers or lecithin are added.
At BJP Store you will find
- 100% ceremonial cacao – pure, single-ingredient, 200 g for ten servings.
- MEXICAN – 96% cacao with two kinds of chilli, cinnamon, star anise and cloves in the style of Mesoamerican xocoatl.
- FOCUS and MINDFULNESS – 92% cacao with lion's mane and cordyceps, or with reishi, ashwagandha and spices.
