About Churchkhella

Churchkhela is a traditional Georgian snack made by dipping a string of walnuts, hazelnuts, or almonds into a thick mixture of grape juice and flour, then allowing it to dry into a chewy, sausage-shaped treat. Popular across the Caucasus region, it is a staple in Georgian cuisine, often enjoyed as a natural energy boost. Churchkhela is packed with nutrients, thanks to its star ingredients—nuts contribute healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals, while the grape juice offers antioxidants. It is minimally processed and contains no artificial additives, making it a wholesome alternative to refined sweets. However, its natural sugars and caloric density mean portion control is key, especially for those monitoring their intake. Loved for its satisfying texture and rich flavor, Churchkhela is a vibrant representation of Georgian culinary tradition and a nutritious, albeit indulgent, on-the-go snack.
