Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) thrives in the harsh climate of the Spiti Valley where few other crops survive. Our flour is stone-ground in small batches using traditional water mills, preserving the full nutritional profile. Despite its name, buckwheat is gluten-free and packed with complete protein, rutin, and magnesium. Ideal for pancakes, noodles (local 'chilta'), and gluten-free baking.
