The Marcona Almond is a specialty variety of almond almost exclusively grown in Spain. Grown on our ranch in the heart of California, these almonds have a buttery flavor and are softer and crunchier than our typical California varieties. Often referred to as the Queen of Almonds, Marconas go great with cheese, wine and fruit. Our family has farmed in California for nearly 70 years, commercially producing peaches, apricots, almonds, walnuts, pistachios, table grapes and wine grapes. At Almondipity, we handle everything from the time the tree goes in the ground until it is shipped to you. Our goal at Almondipity is to provide our customers with delicious products with nothing added that you wouldn’t have in your own kitchen. As people continue to pay more attention to what goes in the food they consume, we keep our ingredient lists as short as possible containing no words with more syllables than our name.

Great Almonds 1/2 the price
These are great for the price, and very good regardless of the price, wish they had a little oil on them but we fix that with a pan and a tablespoon of oil on our own. After adding a tiny bit of oil they are 90% as good as the ones from Spain at 1/2 the price. Sad they are out right now need to order more.

VERY PLEASED…
First of all…THANK YOU for using OLIVE OIL and not canola or other inflammatory seed oils…It makes a HUGE difference…I’m from Spain, and this type of almond is originally from my country.This version from California is really accurate and the healthiest choice I could find.It’s part of my daily breakfast routine!!LOVE THEM.Thank you so much ❤️

Very Tasty Almonds
I loved these almonds. The only reason I gave them 4 stars rather than 5 is they are a bit dry, and I prefer more oily ones. That’s just my preference though, other people may like them better like this, so I do recommend trying them. Everyone I shared them with also commented on how much they liked them.

Happy to find a healthy nut roasted in Olive oil
I absolutely love these nuts.. Appreciate that they are roasted in Olive oil . Instead of the Rancid oils commonly used to roast nuts. The only disappointment was An expiration of only 2 months From the time I received them. It is unlikely I will eat 1 pound of nuts before they expire. That being said I will probably order them again and hope that I will have a more reasonable expiration date on the bag next time .

Very Good, but with One Caveat
This is a really good almond as far as Marcona almonds go. I was impressed specifically because of the price difference in favor of the California Marcona almonds as opposed to the version from Spain, but I was not overly impressed. The issue I have is that there seems to be an interchangeability between Marcona almonds from Spain and Valencia almonds from Spain and I simply have not had that experience with the California Marcona. The Valencia almonds I‘ve eaten were actually from Spain and were extremely delicious. They were very flavorful and the texture was buttery and almost soft, but still crunchy. These Marcona almonds are from California and are supposedly the same as the ones originating from Spain. I can only assume that the reason that Marcona almonds from Spain are so easily interchangeable with Valencia almonds from Spain is because of the very similar or exact flavor profile they share. I cannot say the same for the interchangeability of the Cali version of the Marcona almonds. They simply lack that buttery texture and are slightly more firm than the Valencia almonds from Spain. Maybe it’s just the way these particular Cali Marcona almonds were prepared. Anyway, these almonds are still very good.

Salty and Dry
Too salty - good flavor - but too salty. Have added olive oil to them prior to serving.
