From the Dos Almas Website:
Before reading the details of each of our products we believe it is worth showing you the intricate attention to the details of our very first harvest and production. These are notes of the entire process taken by Emilio De Soto. He wrote the notes in Spanish with only a few points in English. Very few brands are able to list such details because very few know this much about their own products.
