This bread is made for Biona by a family-owned bakery in Muensterland, Germany. Established in 1927, the bakery uses traditional artisan skills-freshly grinding the grains just before baking to create loaves packed with the wholegrain goodness needed as part of a healthy diet. Pumpernickel is made from wholemeal rye by grinding the whole rye berry and baking it very slowly until it caramelises, giving it its distinctive flavour and colour. This product is Organic and is Vegan. Ingredients: Wholegrain rye meal*, water, sugar beet syrup*, barleymalt extract*, sea salt *= certified organic ingredients
