OUR STORY
“SAYEENI” is the Greek word for one's ability to charm and attract others. It is also the process of satisfying the senses through food and the sense of fulfillment as a result of such experience.
We have chosen this word to be the name of our enterprise to express what we strive for: the search for and supply of foods that will fascinate, guide and seduce those who taste them. This is what we are: a team of independent, honest food artisans, afficionados of the earth and nature. Through the synergies we have developed we can dream of a future where everyone will have unhindered access to real organic food and will be able to appreciate the value of simple, high quality goods.

HONEY
Knowledge of honey and its beneficial qualities begins in the dawn of time. Honey is an organic product produced by bees from plant juices via the flower nectar or honey secretions.
Our honey is raw, unheated, unpasteurized, with a high content of pollen grains and a brilliant colour with amber undertones constituting a food of high nutritional value and multifaceted action. As soon as the container is opened, the intense scent of thyme pours out, rich and intoxicating, taking us to meadows of thyme with buzzing swarms of bees and forests filled with blossoms, herbs and wild flowers.
TAHINI
SAYEENI tahini is a dietary treasure with a velvety texture, an enchanting and intense sesame aroma and a golden colour, the source of a plethora of beneficial ingredients for the human body. It is milled in a traditional millstone without being hulled, in order to preserve all of its organoleptic characteristics intact, and constitutes an important source for fibres. The sesame paste ensuing from milling is processed under a moderate thermic load, in order to preserve 65% to 70% of its vitamins and valuable nutrients, such as the enzymes and essential oils of the raw seed.
The process above gives us a product with a high nutritional value, unpasteurized, free from salt, sugar, animal-derived additives, food dyes, taste improvers and harmful chemical pesticides and insecticides.
