OF KIT/CINI

KIT/CINI was born in 2019 from a fusion between a burning passion for gastronomy and the aspiration to share the essence of authenticity. Through the childhood memories and family heritage of the founder, a simple almond becomes an unparalleled delicacy.

The Badame from Maison KIT/CINI is not just a snack, it’s a dish that speaks to the heart, a touch of sweetness and crunch that enhances every moment of conviviality.

A name
a journey

Haute Amande is an echo of tradition and a vibrant tribute to the Myènè language, the heart of its creator’s culture. Choosing this name means celebrating each recipe as a work of art, an act of sharing, and anchoring the brand in a heritage of culinary finesse.

The Badame, beyond its taste, is a return ticket to precious memories, to an African coast where nature composes the most beautiful of symphonies.

The exclusivity

In the heart of Gabon, among ancient stories and traditions, KIT/CINI elevates the Haute Amande to the status of cultural ambassador. Badames are treasures of the earth, gathered with devotion and reflecting an ancestral heritage.

Our quest for exclusivity drives us to limit our production, ensuring that each Badame remains a culinary jewel, a taste experience in itself, full of authenticity and pure sensations.

Prince Aho’s Cry :
An Immortal Passion Rooted in the BADAME

In African wakes, where nostalgia dances with the stars, a spellbinding story is often told. It’s the tale of the Badamier, a legendary tree whose almonds are a treasure for children. Our story begins in the 17th century, in the majestic Kingdom of Dahomey. There, the young prince Aho, madly in love with the daughter of a rich Tuareg, defies ancestral traditions. At a time when marriages were arranged, Aho’s love for the beautiful Mérôn drives him to defy the established order.

At sunrise, Aho sets out on a journey to find a unique gift, a symbol of his undying love. His quest takes him to the heart of Africa, to a mystical forest home to the Badamier, an enchanted tree whose fruit is offered only to the one who solves the riddle of the three-layered almond. After seven days of intense reflection, Aho triumphs, discovering that the emotion hidden after fear, which gives two veils of love, is none other than courage.

However, her return is marked by sadness. Mérôn, his love, has married another. Devastated, Aho throws the fruit of his love into the sea, which is said to be the source of the iodized taste of Badamier almonds. This desperate gesture symbolizes eternal love, explaining why the badamier tree thrives in Africa’s forests and seashores alike.

This poignant legend has come down to us through the centuries thanks to KIT/CINI, inviting us on an extraordinary journey to the heart of the earth’s mysteries. Each Badame almond is a key to the ancient secrets of the forest. To taste this exquisite almond is to find the courage to rediscover yourself, to embrace your true essence, lulled by woody, bewitching aromas.

Each bite is a hymn to love, a membership in a circle of warriors striving for excellence, bearers of a heritage of strength and nobility. KIT/CINI’s Badame is more than just a food; it’s a distinction, a symbol of elevation, once reserved for those in search of ideals. Tasting it is a purely emotional experience, resonating elegantly in the hearts of distinguished epicureans.

Thus continues the story of Prince Aho and his lost love, teaching through the ages that true love, like the Badamier almond, is at once sweet, bitter and eternally memorable.
