1 lb of bourbon soaked cocoa nibs and spices

Description: Cocoa nibs and various other spices soaked in bourbon to add an extra depth of flavor and aroma. Native to tropical regions in Central & South America, Theobroma cacao was traditionally used for its healthful properties and as a ceremonial beverage by ancient Mesoamerican cultures. Our cacao nibs are lightly roasted to bring out deep, earthy flavors and a slight bitterness. Organic, fair trade, roasted cacao nibs can be enjoyed in baking recipes, savory dishes like mole, smoothies, liquors, or simply as is.Cacao beans and nibs have a long and colorful history, beginning in Central and South America before 1500 BC. The entire cacao fruit was used medicinally by the Mayan, Olmec and Aztec civilizations. These early American peoples also enjoyed consuming chocolate as a beverage; each culture added its own mix of spices and flavorings to the drink. After the Spanish conquest in the 1500's, cacao made its way to Europe and began to spread worldwide. Cacao is sometimes found in extract form. Cacao beans and nibs contain a number of beneficial constituents, but many of these constituents are destroyed or lessened when processed. Health practitioners recommend that anyone interested in eating cacao for its health benefits use raw, unprocessed cacao beans and nibs rather than processed chocolate. Cacao bean contains caffeine and may cause nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness, and, occasionally, rapid heartbeat. 5lb available, contact for price.
