We will be drinking an elixir of ceremonial grade cacao brewed with tonic herbs for health & vitality.

Please note - contraindications - cacao is generally a fairly mild and friendly medicine, but there are a few cases where it may be too strong for your system.

Anti-depressants: some prescription anti-depressants can be contraindicated by cacao, so please speak with us before attending if you are taking this kind of medication.

Heart conditions: If you have a serious heart condition the increased heart rate and vasilodilating effect of cacao requires caution, so please speak with us before attending if this applies to you.

Pregnant & Breastfeeding: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding please let us know so that we can adjust you to a lower dose.

If you would like to attend the ceremony but do not wish to drink the Cacao, we can prepare an alternative herbal elixir for you. Please advise us at least 24 hours in advance if you would like to take this option.

Please note - no late arrivals - doors close at 7.15pm - thankyou!

We have some concession rate (financial hardship) spots available for this event, please email blackcockatoostudio@gmail.com to enquire.
