Sonora is one of the oldest surviving wheat varieties anywhere in North America. Predating Red Fife and Turkey Red wheat, it is a soft white, round winter wheat with pale red grains.

While earliest records document its existence in the mountain plains of Sonora, Mexico in the early 1700s, the wheat surely predates that era by generations. It was widely planted in California by the early 1800s.

Sonora has a nutty, buttery flavor well suited for richly flavored breads, pastries and piecrusts. richly flavored breads (up to 50%).

Amazing, nutty flavor. Amazing flour tortillas. And amazing muffins andother things too since it's basically a pastry flour. And stealth whole wheat that looks white makes it more palatable to family who would otherwise complain :D

Love buying local

Added bonus: It’s fresh, and it’s done right. Quality like this cannot be found in mass produced flours.

Loved Sonora

Freshly harvested and milled, the Sonora was a delight to all my senses. It looked beautiful- cream colored, so fresh you could smell the field in which it was grown. I made Sourdough Peach Scones from the Heritage Cookbook and they were divine. I’m a BIG fan of Barton Springs Mill. You can’t go wrong with their flours and l love supporting artisanal farmers and this mill. We are very lucky to have it so near Austin.

Excellent Flour!

I used this flour to make tortillas and they're by far the best flour tortillas I've ever made! So much more flavor than anything I've made before. You can definitely taste the difference!

Best ever

Made biscuits and they were amazing. Can’t imagine ever using store bought. Flavor I never thought existed. Will absolutely be ordering more. Have tried several of your flours and there is nothing that comes close.
