Shaman Chocolates

SHAMAN Organic Chocolates was created as a way to help sustain the economic and cultural survival of the Huichol Indians, the indigenous people of central Mexico. Living in remote areas of the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico, the Huichols are under tremendous pressure to assimilate. Considered by many to be the last remaining tribe whose pre-Columbian traditions are still intact, and living as they have for thousands of years, in harmony with the Earth and all their relations, the Huichols are a precious resource. Our mission is to keep their ancient shamanic culture alive and bring the power and joy of this ancient wisdom to the modern world. Inspired by a visionary dream, Brant Secunda, Shaman, Healer and Ceremonial Leader in the Huichol Indian tradition, created SHAMAN Organic Chocolates as a way to provide on-going financial support so the Huichols can continue to live in their traditional ways, keep their ceremonies, and create their visionary artwork. Our goal is to create the most delicious and ethical chocolate possible, while simultaneously giving back to the Huichol people, who have honored this food of the gods since time immemorial. We strive to do good in all that we do.
