Experience the "Food of the Gods" where ancient Maya tradition meets the heart of Armenia, Belize.
BOOK A TOURNamed after our founder Zoila, we are a proudly indigenous and women-owned family business dedicated to preserving the 3,000-year-old legacy of chocolate production in Belize.
Located in the serene village of Armenia on the Hummingbird Highway, we bridge the gap between historical Maya recipes and modern appreciation. Every pod we process is harvested with respect for the land and the culture that first called Belize the "Cradle of Chocolate."
From plant to bar, witness the alchemy of turning raw cacao seeds into the world's most beloved treat.
Walk the property with Roger or Zoila to see the cacao trees and learn about medicinal plants of the rainforest.
The centerpiece of the experience. Hand-grind roasted nibs on the traditional stone metate until they turn into liquid gold.
Sample chocolates infused with ginger, cardamom, and coconut. Don't leave without our famous frozen mocha frappe.
