This crop is a flint corn with white endosperm. The plant is characterized by long, thin, almost cylindrical ears. The kernels are white or golden-white in color.
The variety is used primarily as a food crop, in particular for producing grits for the preparation of the traditional dish "Riebel". It possesses high adaptability to the local conditions of the Rhine Valley, where it has been grown for several centuries.
