Pure Wimbi

Pure Wimbi is made from finely ground finger millet, a small, round grain with a rich, earthy flavor. Often called "the king of grains", wimbi is one of the most nutritious grains, packed with essential minerals like calcium, iron, and magnesium. Its deep brown color and slightly bitter taste make it unique and a staple in many African homes for making traditional porridge (uji wa wimbi).

Its high fiber content aids digestion and promotes a feeling of fullness, making it ideal for maintaining a healthy weight. It’s also a great choice for boosting bone health due to its calcium-rich composition.
