About
A novelty delicious tea that stole our hearts from the first sip! True to our mission to offer sustainable products and at the same time suggest flavourful, natural goods, no wonder why we had an instant crush with the cacao husks! After monthslong sampling and research, we began to collaborate with small scale organic chocolatiers who put quality first and treat the cacao husks with the same care and love as they do for the beans. In a more colourful mood, we developed a new range of tisanes which are still 100% pure and natural but take the concept of drinking a cup of tea to a whole new level!
What is it? It is a tisane that keeps all the chocolatey flavour and beneficial properties of beloved cacao while carries zero calories. Plus, it is packed with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, a natural mood enhancer and a mild pick-me-up meaning that you can skip coffee and indulge into a cup of cacao husk tea
Why is it sustainable? Chocolate industry uses only the core of the cacao beans. At rhoeco, standing for sustainability and circular economy, we recognized a true gem in the husks, highly nutritional and tasty, and give them a second life offering you a delicious treat! Enjoy your ‘chocolatey’ tisane and use the brewed cacao husks to feed your plants!

Add hot water [95ºC], cover it with a lid and let it rest for 8-10'. Strain and serve.

- Prepare it cold and enjoy a surprisingly refreshing tisane for the warm months of the year.

Cacao husk tea latte
