About this Event
Most NYC evenings fall into two extremes: loud happy hours where you shout over music, or wellness spaces where you sit in silence. The Cacao Salon at FABRIK is the middle ground.
We use ceremonial cacao "Soul & Spirit"—a pure, heart-opening plant drink from Central America—as a social technology for intelligent, open, embodied conversation.
- No small talk.
- No alcohol fog.
- Clarity, energy, and connection that feels real.
Why Ceremonial Cacao?
This is not hot chocolate. Ceremonial cacao contains theobromine, which supports steady energy without the spike-and-crash of coffee. Traditionally known as "heart medicine," it gently activates the cardiovascular system, creating natural warmth and social ease—clarity without jitter, connection without pressure.
Sasha serves small-batch, direct-trade cacao from a Guatemalan family farm.
The Experience
- The Ritual: Guided introduction and tasting experience (multiple servings included).
- The Connection: Lightly facilitated rounds inspired by Authentic Relating and Transformational Coaching—moving beyond "What do you do?" into conversations that feel alive.
- The Space: An intimate evening inside FABRIK, DUMBO's premier community hub for founders and creatives.
- The Vibe: Elevated. Welcoming. Curious. No performative spirituality.
This is for you if:
- You crave meaningful experiences that leave you feeling different.
- You're a founder, creative, or leader seeking high-signal community.
- You're sober-curious or want a more intentional Thursday night.
