Our story

From Amedi, with generations of craft

Our sesame is sourced directly from small family farms in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, then roasted and stone-ground in Amedi, where craftspeople have perfected the art of راشي (tahin) and طحينة (tahina) for generations. You can taste the difference in every spoonful.
