DELICIOUS DOUBLE BUNDLE

“Koko Samoa” is a traditional Samoan hot beverage that has become an integral part of Samoan culture over generations. It’s considered a national drink, often served as a welcoming gesture in traditional gatherings. It is made from the same stuff as chocolate, except for the sugar which you can add to your own tastes.

Absolutely! If you’re familiar with cacao paste, cacao mass, cacao liquor, or ceremonial cacao, you’ll appreciate our single-serve pods. The difference lies in the flavor. Just as chocolate and coffee have varied roasting methods and flavor profiles, Samoan cacao paste, affectionately known as koko Samoa, boasts a darker roast with smokey notes reminiscent of wood fire traditions. So even if you are the "furthest thing from being Samoan" it’s delicious with sweetener like dark chocolate, or for the purists, enjoy it plain.

No, our single-serve pods are crafted for a pure, velvety finish with no gritty bits like traditional Koko Samoa. Our research and customer feedback indicated a preference for a smoother texture, enhancing the rich, chocolatey flavor. Apologies to the nibble fans!

Absolutely, but people all around the world are loving this, from Japan and Germany to Dubai and Austria. Koko Samoa is much like Mate in South America—a national treasure. Though the Mayans, Mexico, and the Philippines (tablea) have their versions, if you love dark chocolate, you’ll likely enjoy this cultural experience.

Our Koko Samoa is made using methods similar to those of chocolatiers. We dehusk the cacao, barrel roast it, grind it into a paste, and set it into convenient-sized pods. Traditionally, Koko Samoa is made by roasting whole cacao beans over an open fire, then grinding them into a paste with a mortar and pestle. This paste is then mixed with hot water to create a rich, flavorful drink.
