Crio Bru is roasted, ground, and brewed just like coffee, but has the amazing flavor and aroma of pure dark chocolate. Brew our 100% pure ground cacao in your French press or coffee maker, and your kitchen will have the aroma of pure dark chocolate heaven in no time.
Brewed cacao contains theobromine, a naturally occurring stimulant found in cacao that can be more pleasant than caffeine. Unlike caffeine – which is harsh with a spike and following crash – theobromine works with your body, not against it, giving you a mild, long-lasting lift without making you feel nervous or jittery.
Enjoy the benefits of one of nature’s most amazing superfoods. Cacao is loaded with nutrients that can lower your acidity intake, boost your immune system, help you lose weight, and best of all help you feel great, increase focus, reduce stress, and sleep better.

I used a French press for my drink. It was sooooooooooooooo bitter and I measured. I think if that could be toned down it would have been better. I used the medium roast so not sure if it is me or it is suppose to be as bitter as it is and I am not appreciating the experience.
I made the product according to the instructions. It was way too much for me to drink in a day, let alone one sitting. The flavor was good but I had to add cream and sweetener before I could drink it. Admittedly, I don't like coffee.
Delicious chocolate flavor without the sugar!
This was my first Crio purchase, so I didn't have to make such a commitment. The small bags are nice for trying different flavors and for sending one to the office with my husband. We had friends over for dinner and served it, and one friend loved it so much that we sent the last bag home with her. It was a small sacrifice at only 4oz, even though now we are out of Crio until our next order arrives. My husband likes the darker roast but my favorite is the Venezuelan, from the first sniff when it opens to the smell as it brews, and drinking it with a little Vanilla Bean coffee syrup.
This is a great value for the amount and variety of the cacao you get. There are two light roasts — each with a slightly different flavor, a medium roast — my favorite, and two dark — not a fan, but coffee drinkers may be. I was pleased to be able to try all of these at a reasonable cost, and now I know what I like. You can get several cups out of each small bag, so it’s not just “a sample.” Recommended if you’re just starting out with Crio.
