What’s in a name? Pacari means nature in Quechua, an Andean indigenous language, and that’s what we’re all about, making the most of nature’s ingredients and protecting and defending her. Pacari is a family-owned Ecuadorian company with a simple mission: to produce the highest quality organic dark chocolate in the world in the most ethical and sustainable way possible.

Pacari goes beyond Fairtrade, for example; supports families in Ecuador by working with them directly, not with middle men, pays farmers a significant premium over Fairtrade prices to ensure they are properly compensated for their hard work.
To date, we have won over 350 international chocolate awards. This is because we use Arriba Nacional cacao beans. Known as “Fino de Aroma’, these Ecuadorian beans are known for their rich, full taste and their fruity and floral notes.
All our cacao bars are made from 60% of cacao or more. High cacao content chocolate has a number of health benefits. We also only use unrefined or coconut sugar.
We use no pesticides, harmful fertilisers or genetically modified products in any part of the supply chain, ensuring the health and well-being of consumers, cacao growers and the environment.
