THE ALMOND
originating in Andalusia
are produced in the Mediterranean climate
characterised by long periods of drought, high temperatures and very low relative humidity, which means less use of phytosanitary products to control pests and diseases.
This leads to an increase in the flavour of the almond due to a higher concentration of sugars.
This is why this very special product, practically unique in the world, has to be processed in facilities equipped with the most advanced technology in order to be able to offer a product of the highest quality. The demanding traceability that we ensure from the tree to the packaging is guaranteed by the quality and food safety certifications shown:
