About this product

Small black beans of this size dominate Latin American cooking, from Brazilian feijoada to Mexican frijoles negros. Canners and repackers favor a tight bean count because it gives even cooking times and a uniform look in the can or bag.

Ethiopian farmers grow common beans on the main Meher rains and harvest from October. Hajuta grades each lot to HPS or sortex quality, fumigates it and packs it in 25 kg or 50 kg bags for shipment through Djibouti.

Hajuta confirms final specifications for each lot against the agreed pre-shipment sample.
