After reading another post on this site, I did a little research and found that Amazon-Mania is the only brand of raw acai in the US. Everything else is pasteurized. It is acai fruit pulp, which is the closest thing you can get to the berry off the tree. Powder is far from raw, since it is processed. They have 2 products and according to them, AcaiRaw is 100% raw and contains only acai and purified water. AcaiTwist is 90% raw and 10% evaporated cane juice, citric acid and guarana extract. Although I am 95% raw, I tried Twist and it is absolutely delicious. Nevertheless, I eat Raw every day. I blend it with raw cacao, a banana and a splash of apple juice (i juice my own). YUM!!! You can find it in Whole Foods in NY tristate area or you can contact them at http://www.amazon-mania.com for other retailers or if you want to buy it direct. In fact, I just had them ship me acai, as they’re having a sale on Raw thru April 30th.

I wish I could get some too. I had loved the juices in the bottle that I got at whole foods when they had it. I rarely saw it but loved it.
