what is the grain of selim (Jaar)?

Jaar is a Wollof term for a superstar dried fruit from the heart of West Africa. What sets it apart is a flavor and aroma that's out of this world and will keep you guessing as to what exactly your tasting and smelling. Imagine smoky, nutty, earthy, and minty all rolled into one—that's Jaar for you!

This little spice essentially packs a double whammy. Not only does it make your food taste and smell amazing, but it's also got some serious healing powers. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, traditional West African healers commonly used it to fix everything from tummy aches, to skin issues.

Jaar's been around for ages, and it's still a big deal today across the African continent. It's like a timeless treasure that's been passed down through generations. It has been used in all sorts of dishes, from savory stews to sweet desserts. But one of the most exciting ways to experience it is in Senegalese spiced coffee.

Adding a pinch of roasted Jaar to your morning brew gives it a bold, aromatic twist that will take your coffee experience to the next level. So, the next time you're looking for a flavor explosion and a health boost in your cup of coffee, give Wollof a try! You won't be disappointed.
