Finest Quality Natural Corn Flour

Corn flour is milled from white maize grown in Tanzania's southern highlands. The grain is cleaned, destoned and milled to the fineness the buyer specifies, then packed for food processors, brewers and institutional kitchens. Lots are kept separate by milling grade so that buyers receive a consistent product.
