Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is of Spanish origin and belongs to the traditional local varieties of the crop. Trees are distinguished by a very early flowering period and very late fruit ripening dates. Due to the overlapping flowering periods, the variety is often used as a pollinator for other almond varieties, in particular the Marcona variety.

Almond kernels of this variety are of interest due to their nutrient profile. Studies have revealed a high content of α-tocopherol (vitamin E), campesterol, and stachyose, as well as a specific fatty acid profile, which distinguishes the variety from modern commercial hybrids.
