Question 1

does it taste like amaretto flavoring used in coffee. Is there sugar in it? I don't want an extract since it has alcohol so I need an alternative

Accepted Answer

Our sprouted Amaretto Almond butter is made from only one ingredient: organic whole almonds. We do not add any flavor, sweeteners or alcohol.
The making of our Sprouted Amaretto Almond flour and butter is a very delicate process wherein we take organic almonds, soak them for many hours, rinse them thoroughly, and dehydrate. This creates a sweeter, crispier, and more nutrient dense almond with a flavor profile we like to call ‘amaretto’. We choose to sprout our almonds because raw almonds have tannic acid and an enzyme inhibitor in their brown skin that protects the nut until the proper levels of sunlight and moisture allow it to germinate. Since the nut does not release its enzymes until those conditions have been reached, eating almonds without removing the inhibitor limits the nutrients your body can absorb and makes the almond difficult to digest. Sprouting almonds is also the only way to release lipase, an enzyme which digests fat. At Manna Organics, we typically source our almonds from Spain or Sicily, which is part of what contributes to their unique flavor profile. These almonds tend to have a brighter and sweeter flavor, and occasionally a bold ‘marzipan’ flavor.

Question 2

Do you use blanched (peeled) almonds?

Accepted Answer

We use whole almonds, with the skin. They are fully sprouted, dehydrated and ground into a smooth delicious butter.

Question 4

Is this product raw?

Accepted Answer

These are not raw. We choose to sprout our almonds because raw almonds have tannic acid and an enzyme inhibitor in their brown skin that protects the nut until the proper levels of sunlight and moisture allow it to germinate. Since the nut does not release its enzymes until those conditions have been reached, eating almonds without removing the inhibitor limits the nutrients your body can absorb and makes the almond difficult to digest. Sprouting almonds is also the only way to release lipase, an enzyme which digests fat.
