El Almendro Caramel and Sesame Turron

Tasting Notes from the Curator

El Almendro’s Caramel and Sesame Turron dances on the palate with the storied almonds of Spain’s Mediterranean coast, imparting a romanza of toasted warmth. The Milflores honey weaves in a floral undertone, a harmony of sweetness that sings through the rich, buttery caramel. Amidst this orchestration, the inclusion of sesame seeds adds a chorus of subtle earthiness, balancing the sweetness with their unmistakable texture. This is no ordinary confectionery; it’s a tapestry of flavors, complex and yet immediately familiar, inviting the senses on a journey that spans the essence of traditio and the innovation of contemporary taste. The crackle of its bite releases the melodies of generations and terroir, a rare composition crafted with the artisanal passion that El Almendro has cultivated since 1883.
