ECOLOGICAL TIGERNUT D.O. Valencia. 25 KG. BAG

This tiger nut is the result of the effort of a group of organic farmers from the Huerta de Valencia. We cultivate the tigernut for eight months as our grandparents did without any chemical treatment. Then we wash and dry it naturally in a curing process that lasts three months. Thanks to this curing process, the starch of the tigernut is transformed into natural sugars, which give it the characteristic taste of the tigernut milk made with the tigernut from our own harvest in Valencia’s orchard.
