Trivia

Its alternative names as Inca wheat or grain amaranth oil indicate its original use: Even the Aztecs, Inca and Maya used the grain-like amaranth oil seeds as important sources of protein.

The “Inca wheat” comes from the temperate and warmer areas of eastern and central South America, especially the Andes, and reaches a height of up to 1.20 m. The flowers of the amaranth oil are purple-red and hang down when they are fully developed.

We cold-press the small, black amaranth oil seeds to obtain our valuable amaranth oil.
