- Dastony - 100% Organic Almond Butter - 8 oz. (227g) Dastony 100% Organic Almond Butter is raw and stone ground. Dastony uses an ancient method known as stone-grinding in the production of its products. Originally used for turning olives into luscious and delicious olive oil, stone-grinding applies pressure with powerful, perfectly smooth granite wheels. Although "old world" in its approach, it is revolutionary in terms of preserving nutrients and flavor. This natural preservation is accomplished by maintaing a consistently low temperature throughout the entire process. Another unmatched result of stone-grinding is a silky smooth texture and mouth feel that is truly beyond words. Only the finest selection of raw and organic ingredients are used in Dastony Stone-Ground Nut and Seed Butters. Every batch is handcrafted and meticulously cared for during a process which takes 24-48 hours. The time and attention seems excessive but is well worth the results. A gourmet and silky smooth nut/seed butter that still maintains all of its nutritional integrity is something Dastony takes great pride in. Almonds are naturally delicious and extremely nourishing. Healthy fats, fiber, calcium, zinc, selenium, copper, magnesium, and vitamin E are just a handful of the key nutrients that make almonds so nutritious. An unmistakable natural sweetness and impressive variety of nutrients makes almonds one of the most perfect foods. USDA Organic Raw Stone Ground Gluten-Free Gourmet Artisan Quality Smooth Why Stone Ground? We've all witnessed the browning of an apple. When the fruit is cut or bruised browning occurs because living cells are damaged and begin to oxidize. Now imagine the process used during the production of a typical nut butter - mastication with heavy duty metal blades. This process literally shreds, tears and cuts repeatedly until the desired texture is achieved. Any living enzymes, viable nutrients, and 'life' would certainly dwindle. RAW and LIVING are principles they at Dastony are truly passionate about. Like with anything living, the energy and vital compounds found in nuts and seeds are very delicate. Their method of stone grinding is the best way to preserve and cherish this life force. Large, flawless granite wheels slowly turn 'grinding' the food until it is silky smooth. Temperatures well below 118 degrees are continuously maintained - another gauge for the preservation of raw and living.
