Tibet's chocolate! Perfect for a convenient breakfast or on-the-go snacking.
Tsamba or tsampa is a type of flour made from ground, roasted barley, which has sustained Tibetans for over a thousand years. We use the heirloom Tibetan Purple Barley variety, now grown in the USA.
Tsampa is a beloved staple in the Tibetan diet and is enjoyed many ways. It's a common breakfast for Tibetans, including the Dalai Lama.
The Guardian once described it as the "Breakfast of champions: the Dalai Lama's tsampa."
Our decadent Tsamba Balls are lightly sweetened with natural dates from a Regenerative Farmer in California. They offer a combination of nutty, toasty, and chocolatey flavors with a coffee undertone.
Unique in character – purplish color (a type of antioxidant), Purple Karma Barley is superbly high in fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals and has a low glycemic index (30).
