The Story

The "Sacred Sustenance of the Pacific". A cornerstone of Afro-Colombian culture, revered as the "Tree of Life". These vibrant orange fruits are traditionally boiled in salted water, a preparation that unlocks their unique, starchy richness. They are a phenomenal source of complex carbohydrates for sustained energy, and packed with Vitamin A, protein, and essential amino acids rarely found in fruit.

Tasting Notes

A unique, savoury-sweet flavour with a texture often compared to a roasted sweet potato or squash with a subtle nutty undertone, best enjoyed with honey and salt.
