Natural almonds with skin

Originally from Asia, the almond tree (Prunus dulcis) was brought to Spain more than 2000 years ago by Phoenician traders. Today, Spain is the second largest producer of almonds in the world.

In the area of Castilla y León there are some producers of a sweet almond variety, distinguishable by its soft skin in the mouth, particularly pleasant to the palate.

Almonds are rich in antioxidants, such as tannins, flavonoids and vitamin E, which help to combat the excess of free radicals in the organism and prevent the appearance of various diseases.
