El Almendro Chocolate Caramel Almond Turron Sticks

Tasting Notes from the Curator

With a profound aroma that weaves the nuttiness of almonds through the sweet, smoky whispers of caramel, capped by the embrace of milk chocolate, the El Almendro Chocolate Caramel Almond Turron Sticks are a culinary sonnet. Each bite is a layer of complexity, as the distinguished crunch of almonds plays a duet with the creamy, yielding chocolate. In the mouth, the turron unfolds like a rich tapestry, with the caramel lending a tender but emphatic gooeyness that resists and relents, each chew releasing pockets of floral, mildly tangy honey notes reminiscent of Jijona’s storied turrón. This is a confectionary march across history, an artifact of culinary nobility made accessible, its superior texture and balance of sweetness an achievement mirrored by no other.
