Our wheatgrass (Triticum aestivum) comes from controlled organic cultivation in Croatia. The wheatgrass is grown by a passionate family business that is committed to sustainability and completely against genetic engineering, cultivating exclusively according to organic guidelines. All family members are involved in the operation of the company. The wheatgrass is grown, harvested and processed on site - all from one source. Only the top 15cm of the youngest shoots of the wheatgrass, known as cotyledons, are harvested. The cotyledons are taken away to be processed immediately after cutting. They are then gently air-dried at temperatures of up to 35°C to preserve the valuable ingredients (raw food quality) and then finely ground and sieved. They are then stored in a dark and cool place at max. 18°C.
For the capsule shells we use custom-made HPMC capsules that, unlike most other HPMC and pullulan capsules on the market, are 100% free from controversial additives such as carrageenans and PEG. We then package this product in environmentally friendly amber glass.
