OUR ACAI

History of Acai

origin of a superfood

Açaí (pronounced ah-sigh-EE) is a luscious, deep purple fruit that flourishes on the Açaí palm tree, a native of the Amazon basin in South America. Across centuries, Açaí has stood as a dietary cornerstone for the indigenous people of the Amazon, prized not only for its delightful taste but also for its extraordinary nutritional value.

Scientifically known as Euterpe oleracea, the Açaí palm yields small, dark purple berries. These berries undergo meticulous harvesting, processing, and transformation into acai pulp, serving as the cornerstone for a diverse range of delectable and nourishing Açaí creations.
