Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully dried to preserve its deep reddish-brown color, firm smooth skin, and dense, kidney-like shape. The beans have a mild, faintly earthy aroma. When simmered, they soften to a creamy, mealy texture with a subtly sweet, nutty flavor that blends well into broths and porridge.
