Agave, "Real" - 1 liter
(Item no: 1414)
Quantity:
Quantity on Hand: Available
This Raw Agave Nectar is proudly produced in the town of Tequila, Mexico and is made under the same natural conditions as it has been done for centuries. It is extracted solely from the Blue Agave Tequilana Weber variety. This particular plant has the highest concentrations of minerals as well as a high content of Inulin. Inulins are a group of naturally occurring oligosaccharides, or short chains of fructose molecules that are used increasingly in foods because they range from completely bland to subtly sweet and have unusual nutritional characteristics. Inulin also increases calcium absorption and possibly magnesium absorption, while encouraging beneficial probiotic flora.
Agave Nectar production involves removing the leaves from the Agave plant then crushing and milling the plant core called the "Pina". The precious agave nectar is then captured and put through a proprietary natural process to deactivate specific enzymes in order to keep it from fermenting. The Ancients considered the plant to be sacred. They believed the liquid from this plant purified the body and soul. Use in teas, smoothies, as a syrup, with cereals, for dips and spreads and any dessert. In recipes use about 25% less of this raw agave nectar than you would other sweeteners.
This Agave Nectar is made with the highest quality 100% organic blue agave plants, aged and matured to its ideal, employing first rate organic farming and harvesting methods.
Methods include using an all natural processes to test for the ideal sugar profile before harvesting the Agave plants from the fields
This Agave Nectar is not cooked, retains its natural consistency based on high velocity centrifugal straining of juices, and thus keeps the product in a true raw food category.
The manufacturing process used to produce this Agave Nectar (patent pending) is unique and proprietary.
Certified Organic and also Kosher certified.
The community values behind this Agave Nectar are strong and our employees are treated like family. The values of caring for the land and the people are deeply rooted within the company ethos. They have been honored for generations, which is why we have 3rd generation employees doing what their grandfathers did on the same land.
Production processes are Organic and our cutting edge Organic recycling plan, integrates a thorough composting program putting the necessary properties back into the land from whence it came.
The taste is second to none. Chefs and connoisseurs around the world are heralding its exquisite flavors and texture.
The chemical composition of this Raw Agave Nectar is far superior in quality when compared to the competition, especially in light of the lack of legal norms and quality control standards in the agave industry.
By eliminating chemical compounds that are difficult for the body to break down, Agave Nectar becomes sweeter to the taste but also healthier.
This Agave Nectar's "sugars" are NOT inverted with crystallized fructose. There is a Carbon 14 isotope (test) that can be applied to determine whether it is made from 100% Blue Agave and whether or not it contains the Agave carbohydrates: Inulina - Fructose and others that set it apart.
This Raw Agave Nectar is gently manufactured in a way to minimally take away from the natural benefits (no enzymes or acids are added and the temperature is maintained at a low rate).
