We found this peanut butter almost right next door in Grand Rapids, MI. Like most of the simple great foods in our catalog (e.g heirloom corn polenta), it’s the result of much care and very little processing.

Jeff Koeze sources great Virginia peanuts, brings them north to Michigan in one ton sacks, then blanches them to remove the skins and keep them from going rancid (a common flaw in a lot of natural peanut butters, I think). He toasts the peanuts in vintage coffee roasters, adds sea salt, then grinds the mixture to the texture of spun silk.

The result is not an air-whipped, sugar-filled concoction but a natural, intense, velvety, mouthwatering sensation that sells out regularly. Get a couple of jars, quick.

"Coarsely ground in small batches and lightly seasoned with sea salt, it is neither creamy nor chunky but totally irresistible."
Florence Fabricant, New York Times

Crunchy: Same great peanuts, left chunky for those who like it that way.
