Nueces de Nerpio

Nueces de Nerpio are premium-quality walnuts from the region of Nerpio in Albacete, Spain. These walnuts are known for their high antioxidant levels, particularly polyphenols, which are significantly greater than those in other walnut varieties.

Cultivated traditionally at high altitudes above 900 meters, these nuts are grown on centuries-old trees in a pristine environment, benefiting from clean mountain air and natural water sources. This distinctive environment contributes to the unique flavor profile of the walnuts, which have a slightly bitter and astringent taste due to their tannin-rich skin.

They are protected by a Designation of Origin (PDO) certification, ensuring they are hand-harvested, air-dried, and processed with artisanal care.
