Ground Gesho Powder 1kg (Gemahlenes Gesho / ጌሾ)

Master the timeless art of traditional home brewing with our high-quality Ground Gesho Powder (Gemahlenes Gesho / ጌሾ) 1kg. Sourced from the finest wild-harvested Rhamnus prinoides (shiny-leaf buckthorn / Faulbaum), this 100% natural herb is expertly dried and finely ground to preserve its intense bittering properties and earthy aroma. Acting as the essential fermenting agent and natural preservative, our ground Gesho powder dissolves efficiently to give your traditional home-brewed beverages their signature authentic character and perfect crisp finish.

100% Pure Ground Gesho: Finely milled from select dried buckthorn leaves and stems with zero additives, fillers, or chemical agents.

The Soul of Traditional Brewing: The fundamental, non-negotiable bittering agent used to ferment and preserve authentic Tella (traditional beer) and Tej (honey wine).

Efficient Flavor Release: The finely ground powder texture maximizes surface area, allowing for a faster, deeper extraction of flavor and natural ferments compared to whole sticks.

1kg Bulk Value Pack: Generously sized to support large holiday fermentation batches for family gatherings and cultural celebrations.

Store the package in a cool, dark, dry pantry, cabinet, or cellar entirely away from moisture, ambient cooking steam, and direct sunlight.

Keep the bag tightly sealed after opening, or transfer the powder to a large airtight container to lock in the earthy aroma and prevent humidity from causing clumping.

Authentic Tella & Tej Brewing: Add the ground Gesho powder into your initial fermentation mash (Bikil and Enkuro stages for Tella, or the honey-water blend for Tej). Let it sit and naturally ferment to achieve that crisp, beautifully balanced, and distinctively bitter traditional profile.
