A Taste of Charleston
Unique to the Lowcountry since Colonial times, Benne (the Bantu-word for sesame) was brought from East Africa (Madagascar), through West Africa, and brought over to the southern United States by the African slaves.
Many Southern recipes call for sesame seed, but none is so loved as the Benne Wafer, a Charleston favorite only available from Olde Colony Bakery. The Benne Wafer is a thin cookie, made with tasty toasted sesame. Our Benne Wafer recipe dates back well over 100 years and is said to be the only existing original Benne Wafer recipe.
We’ve been selling Benne Wafers since 1940 and think they perfectly represent the fine taste and heritage of the Charleston, South Carolina area. The Bantu believe eating these cookies bring good luck, and so do we!
The Gullah Art of Charleston
Palmetto Concierge Travel and Meeting LLC is offering prints of the Charleston, SC Landscape and The Gullah Life and Culture. The artists include Jonathan Green and John Jones, both of whom are from South Carolina and Internationally recognized for presenting and expressing the Gullah Geechee life as it was in the Coastal areas of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida.
We are honored to present these prints with the cooperation of Chuma Gallery, Charleston, SC. It is hoped that the prints will help the Life, History and Culture of the Gullah Geechee Community to endure and maintain its role in American History.
