Spanish Pine Nuts

The Spanish pine nuts comes from the Pinus pinea species, which is highly valued internationally from a gastronomic point of view. It is a nut that retains all the aroma of the forest and hence its delicious flavor. It is used to flavor both sweet and savory dishes.

Pine nuts of Chinese origin are cheaper due to their softer bark, which allows for industrialized drying and extraction. The Spanish pine nut contains a lower percentage of fat, the resin aromas and the slightly umami contribution of the protein are more intense. It is an indispensable food in a healthy and balanced diet.
