Kiva Terra

Kiva Terra emerged from an innovative spirit that has defined Kiva Confections since 2010. When founders Scott Palmer and Kristi Knoblich Palmer began crafting premium cannabis chocolates in their Bay Area kitchen, they unknowingly set the gold standard for the entire legal cannabis industry. Building on the massive success of their flagship Kiva Bars, the company launched Terra Bites in 2014 as an innovative confection that would revolutionize convenient cannabis consumption.Terra quickly became one of California's most popular edibles for multiple years running, spawning countless imitators who tried to replicate its success. The brand's breakthrough came from solving a real consumer need: providing precise, shareable, portable doses in an irresistibly delicious format. What started as a family-owned business has grown into the #1 edibles brand in the country, now employing 400+ passionate people.Terra's success story reflects Kiva's broader mission to change how the world views and uses cannabis for the better. From those humble kitchen beginnings to becoming an industry leader, Terra represents the perfect marriage of artisanal craftsmanship and scientific precision that consumers have come to expect from the Kiva family of products.

Kiva Terra operates across 15 states including CA, AZ, NV, IL, OH, MI, HI, MA, OK, NY, NJ, CT, MO, NM, and FL, bringing their premium bite-sized chocolates to hundreds of dispensaries nationwide. Each Terra Bite contains 5mg of THC or less per piece, handcrafted using a traditional, labor-intensive panning process that takes 10+ hours to complete – an artisanal technique considered an art form in the confections world.The Terra product line features four core flavors: chocolate-covered espresso beans made with micro-roasted Tanzanian coffee beans, the award-winning blueberry bites known simply as "The Blueberries," rich sea salt caramel, and CBD almond varieties offering a 5:1 CBD to THC ratio. Each tin contains 20 precisely-dosed pieces totaling 100mg THC, packaged in sleek, resealable metal containers that prioritize both portability and child safety.Like Kiva's Bars, every Terra Bite is made of sustainably-sourced cacao infused with solventless cold water hash, delivering a richer, fuller cannabis experience. The brand maintains Kiva's commitment to using premium ingredients: 54% cacao semisweet chocolate for dark varieties and minimum 34% cacao for milk chocolate options.

Terra embodies Kiva's foundational mission to create a better edible experience for legal cannabis consumers while changing how the world views and uses cannabis for the better. The brand was built on stringent self-imposed standards for potency, production, packaging and testing – making Kiva one of the first edible makers in the country to prioritize these principles.Terra's commitment centers on three core values: consistency through precise, buildable dosing that helps consumers find their sweet spot; sustainability through responsibly-sourced cacao and environmentally-friendly packaging initiatives; and accessibility through convenient formats that make cannabis approachable for both newcomers and experienced users. The brand believes cannabis consumers deserve to know exactly what they're ingesting, which drives their transparent labeling and rigorous quality control processes.Beyond product excellence, Terra supports broader cannabis advocacy through trade organizations, educational outreach, and community events that help normalize and legitimize cannabis use in society.
