Mikuna is a company that specializes in plant-based protein powders. Their protein powders are organic, vegan, natural, and dairy-free. They offer different flavors of protein powders, including Pure Chocho, Vanilla, and Cacao. The key ingredient in their products is chocho, an ancient lupin that is grown exclusively in the Andes Mountains at elevations of 11,000-14,000 feet. Chocho is known for its high nutrient density and is packed with protein, fiber, iron, and calcium.
The company was founded by Ricky Echanique, a fifth-generation farmer from Ecuador. Ricky's own health and digestion issues led him on a journey to find a better form of plant-based nutrition. This journey brought him back to his roots in Ecuador where he discovered the power of chocho as a clean and sustainable source of plant protein. Inspired by the kindness and work ethic of local farmers, Ricky made it his mission to share chocho with the world while supporting and empowering these farmers.
Mikuna believes in the power of regenerative agriculture and strives to make a positive impact on the environment through their sustainable practices. They are committed to doing food better by incorporating regenerative practices into their operations from land use to waste management. Mikuna aims to not only provide high-quality plant-based protein powders but also promote a healthier planet for future generations.
