At the Cooperativa of Formentera, we cultivate Blat Xeixa, an autochthonous cereal. Blat Xeixa is hardy and adapted to our land, this cereal with its unique flavour revives the agricultural tradition of Formentera.
Today, Blat Xeixa is part of our products, providing an authentic experience in every bite.
Blat Xeixa is an autochthonous variety of traditional wheat from the Balearic Islands, especially well known in Formentera.
The most outstanding feature of Blat Xeixa is its adaptability to the climatic conditions and soils of Formentera, which gives it a unique flavour and characteristics.
The grain of Blat Xeixa is smaller and less productive compared to other commercial varieties, but its quality is excellent, especially for the production of traditional flours.
This wheat is used to make high quality flours, which are then used to make bread, cakes and other traditional products, contributing to the sustainability and strengthening of the local economy.
Below you will find a list of bakeries where you can buy bread and other products made with Blat Xeixa, thus contributing to the valorisation of the local product and the preservation of traditional agricultural varieties.
