Our Chocolates
Our innovative collection of chocolates and bars is inspired by Costa Rica's rich flavors and indigenous heritage. We use only the finest local ingredients available to deliver chocolates that not only taste delicious but are made with the environment and local communities in mind. Our name honors Sibú, who is revered by native peoples from Costa Rica to the foothills of the Andes. Sibú is said to have created the world by spreading magical seeds of life, and the cacao tree is among his most sacred inventions. Find out more at www.sibuchocolate.com. Enjoy!
Sibú Chocolate works with a Rainforest Alliance certified farm on Costa Rica’s Atlantic slope. This seal means that farmers follow sound agricultural practices that protect forest, rivers, soils and wildlife, while being good community neighbors. It also ensures that workers have just wages, dignified living conditions and access to education and health care.
The cocoa beans used to make our chocolate come from trees specially developed by the Center for Tropical Agriculture and Higher Education (CATIE). Based in Costa Rica, CATIE houses one of the world’s most important genetic banks for cacao, including rare and wild species. Through the purchase of Sibú Chocolate, you are helping support CATIE’s program to generate more resistant and productive varieties of cacao, which aims to benefit small scale cocoa producers throughout Latin America, as well as protect natural habitats where cacao is grown.
