🤍 Coco de Paimpol AOP Beans – 1 kg – Iodized Treasure of Brittany

Raw fillet – Cat. I – Origin France (Côtes-d'Armor, Brittany)
➡️ Everything you need to know about the Paimpol Protected Designation of Origin (PDO)

Hand-picked between July and October on the north coast of Brittany, Coco de Paimpol beans are the only dried beans to benefit from a PDO (since 1998). Their ivory-white, soft, and fine beans are adorned with an extremely thin skin that disappears during cooking to reveal an inimitable creamy texture, slightly sweet with a delicate nutty note.

🌿 An exceptional vegetable
✔ Sweet & buttery taste with a light marine aroma
✔ Plump grain (size 280–320 grains/kg) – quick cooking 20 min without soaking
✔ Rich in vegetable proteins, fibers & minerals (magnesium, iron)
✔ Unique coastal terroir : salty breezes & loamy soils for tender meat
✔ AOP certification : traceability, strict specifications & manual harvesting

📦 Packaging
1 kg loose fillet (shelled beans) – approx. 6 to 8 servings.
