Organic wholegrain cold pressed tahini

SAMYTHOS is a new vertically integrated company producing homemade Greek superfoods. We manufacture traditional and innovative sesame seed products using cutting edge methods.

We use the Evros variety of sesame seed. It grows exclusively on SAMYTHOS’ mountainous and organic farmland, which is within the Natura European Ecological Network of regions which are home to rare and threatened flora and fauna.

Under strict supervision and through the combination of low yield and mountainous microclimate, we produce certified organic sesame seeds with the highest quality characteristics (essential oils, vitamins, minerals & enzymes).

We harvest, sort, wash and dry the seeds by hand to minimize the risk of damaging the grain, which would compromise its quality.

Our company is certified for its organic production of sesame seeds and organic tahini and have obtained the ISO 22000 certification.

After the sesame seed is heated, the sesame paste is blended at a moderate temperature to retain 65%-70% of the uncooked raw tahini’s vitamins.

The machines used during the processing are of our design, and we continually monitor the characteristics and nutrients of the sesame seed paste. As a result, the seed retains its relative moisture while we ensure that its oil is affected the least.

The above procedure means that we have organic wholegrain tahini with high fluidity, full taste and the aroma of roasted sesame seeds with the dominant notes of peanut and hazelnut in the aftertaste.
