Handcrafted from exotic, sustainable and locally-sourced Manchiche and Teak with a beeswax finish.

Sourced from native Guatemalan artisans local to the Petén region. 

This rich exotic wood combines beautifully with the fresh tones of artisanal meats and cheeses. A true expression of the beauty and biodiversity of the Guatemalan jungle, and a support of sustainability. Finished with a non-toxic and food safe beeswax paste.

This wood is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council to ensure that the makers are not contributing to over cutting or damaging the jungle. The sustainable use of natural resources has proven to be the solution for breaking cycles of poverty in the Petén communities and protecting the environment.

Care: Recommend conditioning boards with a mixture of beeswax and food safe linseed oil, mineral oil or any other natural oil that does not turn rancid.
