About

Company description

Originally from Ethiopia, Teff is the smallest sized cereal in the world and is often referred to as an Ancient Grain. The wonderful properties of teff encouraged us to start growing it in various regions of Spain more than 10 years ago. Cylteff are responsible for cultivation of the teff, while Blonk looks after the sales and marketing side. The partnership offers several grades of conventional teff and is also the largest producer of organic teff.

Since teff is the only raw material that we work with, all our premises are designed to process teff in the most efficient way possible. We control the whole process, from farm to final product so we have total traceability. All our teff is processed in our own premises with extreme care and complies with all relevant EU food regulations.

Growing teff is complicated and therefore requires a lot of care from sowing to harvesting. The seed grain used for sowing every year is selected from our own production. Likewise, the professionalism of our farmers is very important so that we obtain optimal harvests and high quality teff.

The harvested grain is transported from the farms directly to our stores in order to avoid contamination with gluten from other crops. Immediately after reception, the teff is checked and measures are taken to preserve the quality.

In order to offer a high quality teff to the market, careful cleaning is an essential part of the process. We also apply additional steps required because of the special characteristics of teff and to offer an ingredient that fulfils all the requirements of the final customer.
