Macambo
…the Amazon’s newest nutritional superstar!
Excite the senses with the unique flavor, texture, and shape of the Amazon’s hidden secret: Macambo, part of the Theobroma plant family, is a brain tingling, buttery treat. A close relative of the Cacao bean, Macambo is valued by local people for its invigorating properties and impressive nutritional profile, providing energy for long days in the equatorial heat.
Macambo grows wild amidst the rainforest canopy, its precious beans protected by large golden pods. Macambo Beans are sustainably wild-harvested by women’s collectives; this traditional practice supports old growth rainforest preservation.
Macambo Benefits
