Harmony tri-color - a blend of traditional, red and black whole grain quinoa! Thirty years ago, Quinoa Corporation introduced the grain quinoa (pronounced keen-wa) to the world. Several years ago we launched our red pasankalla variety and called it Inca Red to honor the Inca civilization who first cultivated this amazing grain. Today, we are happy to be able to introduce yet another variety - black quinoa. Because the red and black varieties were almost extinct, their availability is limited, but we're able to offer them along with our traditional white Real' variety in our unique tri-color blend. We call it Harmony. We think you'll call it delicious. We hope you enjoy our new blend, and we always look forward to hearing from you with your comments and suggestions. The Quinoa Story: The Inca call this grain quinoa or the Mother Grain in their ancient language. So important was quinoa to their diet that the mighty Inca king planted the first row of quinoa each year with a solid gold spade. Grown in the mighty Andes Mountains of South America, quinoa dates back over 5,000 years. this tiny seed, no bigger than a mustard seed, once fed an ancient civilization stretching from the seacoast of Chile to the snow-capped peaks of the Peruvian Andes, the vast Inca Empire.
