EL BREZAL AGAVE SYRUP	Agave syrup is made from the juice extracted from the pineapple of the agave plant, also called Maguey, which undergoes a process of filtration and evaporation until a denser texture is achieved. Our El Brezal organic agave syrup is extracted from the Blue Weber Tequilana variety, considered the best on the market. This wonderful plant is grown mainly in Mexico. It was the Aztecs who first discovered the many uses and benefits of agave. Agave syrup is characterised by its powerful sweetening power, twice that of regular sugar, thanks to its composition, mainly fructose (70%) and glucose (25%). Considered an excellent flavour and aroma enhancer, less quantity is needed for our food to obtain the same sweet taste, so it can be considered a healthier alternative than regular sugar to sweeten our food	SPAIN
