What is MayaNut™?

MayaNut™ is a roasted seed powder made from the seeds of the Alicastrum tree (Brosimum alicastrum). Naturally caffeine-free and nutrient-dense, it adds warm roasted depth with a gentle cocoa-like note to smoothies, açaí bowls, baking, and everyday cooking.

We’re finalizing packaging and inventory now and will share launch updates soon.

How It All Started…

In 1923, Herbert “Buba” Humphreys, standing alongside his father Harry Humphreys, founded Kennesaw Fruit Company, harvesting oranges, pineapples, watermelons, and other crops. In 2025, Buba’s great-grandson, August Kokus, founded The MayaNut Company, focused on Alicastrum (Brosimum alicastrum) and the production of MayaNut™ in Florida.
