Origin

Seleccionamos cuidadosamente nuestras paltas dentro de los predios del Valle de Aconcagua, valle rodeado de montañas atravesado por el rio Aconcagua , por el cual lleva su nombre, que nace directamente a los pies de la cordillera de los Andes. Debido a la calidad de los suelos, la pureza de sus aguas y la gran cantidad de luz, este valle hace que la palta sea de una calidad Premium. La cosecha se efectúa cuando, después de una cuidadosa supervisión de varios meses, se detecta la correcta cantidad de poliphenol, peridóxidos y contenido de aceite necesarios para lograr el equilibrio y calidad propios de este exclusivo aceite de palta. La infusión es 100% natural, un concentrado del producto que le da ese sabor tan especial.
