By: Squire Sancho Panza What makes a better butter It’s all in the nuts Spanish peanuts are used in snack mixes, peanut brittle, and various confectionary blends for a reason. They have a robust peanut taste that shines through. So when it comes to peanut butter, Spanish peanuts produce the richest - tasting peanut flavor. Don Quixote is the peanut-butteriest peanut butter you will ever have the pleasure to enjoy! The protein in Spanish peanuts is also better. That means it has all the essential amino acids in the right amounts (including tryptophan and methionine) to support your muscle and immune health. At Don Quixote, we grind up the Spanish peanuts along with their papery skins.
