About Sacred Taste
Sacred Taste is a premium cacao company that is dedicated to crafting the finest quality, wild-crafted, ethically sourced, sustainably made, regenerative cacao.
Their ethos is centred around the belief that cacao is not just a delicious treat, but a sacred superfood that has the power to bring people together and nourish the soul. They dream of a world where cacao is appreciated as a sacred food, valued for its unique taste, medicinal properties and its ability to bring joy and happiness to all who consume it.
Sacred Taste believes that Mother Earth is the most Sacred of all. Earth gives us oxygen to breathe, water to drink, food for us to eat and a place to call home. It’s their mission to preserve the land and protect the culture from where our cacao comes from, whilst helping people reconnect to the planet and their purpose through remembering what is Sacred.
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 andregeneratively grown so everyone can enjoy.
Known as the heart-opening medicine of the world, cacao has the power to transform our lives and the lives of others by dropping us out of our head and into our heart and taking us from a fear based mentality to a love based reality. -
Meet The Founder
DJ turned adventureprenuer, Dan Koch spent his early years featuring on the lineups of some of the biggest trance events and festivals in Australia.
Finding the scene too toxic with drugs and alcohol, Dan left the industry at the height of his career to pursue a more holistic lifestyle. After doing three years sobriety with Cacao as his only substitute, Dan discovered a new way to party and celebrate life, without compromising his health or the experience.
In August 2019, Dan travelled to South America in search of the origins of cacao. It was his 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, his journey led him into the centre of the Amazon basin and to the birthplace of cacao. After a 16 hour bus ride and 7 hour canoe ride, he reached the heart of the Amazon basin where he met with the oldest Indigenous tribes in South America, the Ashaninka. Here, he discovered the importance of cacao, the essence of its spirit and learnt about the Ashaninka way of life.
Now, five years on, he has founded Sacred Taste and is turning the party industry on its head, throwing drug and alcohol free Cacao parties that are good for the planet and the people, where every drink sold and each pack purchased, protects an acre of Indigenous Lands in the Amazon Rainforest from where their Cacao comes from.
