Tree To Bar Chocolate

Ometepe Island, Nicaragua

El Pital is located almost directly between two volcanoes that make up the infinity shaped island called Ometepe in Nicaragua. One volcano is active with fire and the other has a crater lake that creates waterfalls and natural springs. The island of Ometepe is surrounded by a fresh water lake and is home to a tropical jungle :) . 

Our dream is to create and share quality cacao, live in harmony with nature, plant trees for future generations, to thrive and to share our passion for human connection by creating space for people to share their gifts and connect while continuing to nourish their bodies and the soil.

We hope you visit us and experience the magic that exists.

Community Events

One of the greatest quality of cacao is the power of connection. The importance of a strong community is an ancient knowing, which goes back to the use of the holy elixir. Because of that we create weekly Community Events like Drum & Singing Circles, Ecstatic Dances and definitely not to forget our Sunday Brunch you don't want to miss. Vegan lasagna served with a side salad and a raw vegan cheesecake — portions run out fast, be sure to reserve yours ahead of time! 

Come in unity again and enjoy an experience full
of deep connections, culinary flavors & textures you won't find anywhere else!
