Kiukiu - The Latin Cocktail Element, blended with delicious cacaofruit!
Kiukiu, a magic Latin taste of life
Inspired by the Latin American way of life, Kiukiu was created with the upcycled cacaofruit pulp, which brings surprising and deliciously refreshing aromas to the drink. Enhanced with a touch of acerola and the berries of the Brazilian pepper tree, it’s the perfect match with tequila, caçacha, pisco, and rum.

The delicious zesty fruity flavor of the cacaofruit is rounded off with the delightful lemony note of the acerola berry and perfectly complemented by the unmistakable spiciness of the pink berries of the Brazilian pepper tree.
These 100% pure ingredients give Kiukiu a flavorful temperament that always provides unforgettable moments of pleasure! The zesty fruity cacaofruit pulp forms the perfect basis for refreshing cocktails with new flavors.

Created with the upcycled cacaofruit pulp
Just like an orange or an apple, the cacaofruit contains a fresh and juicy pulp, with a sweet fruity scent of lychee, flowers, and honey. Previously 70% of the cacaofruit was thrown away after the seeds (or better known as the cocoa beans) were harvested. Thanks to the upcycled revolution, the complete cacaofruit is now crafted into 100% pure and nutritious ingredients.
Not only do the cacaofruit ingredients bring a uniquely delightful flavor to alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails: they are now also ‘Upcycled Certified’. This certification empowers brands and artisans to communicate about their efforts to prevent food waste and fight climate change. On top of that: it helps consumers make a positive impact with every purchase they make.
