Almateira Organic Agave Syrup GOLD uses 100% Blue Agave, a plant from the Agave genus of the Liliaceae family, cultivated in the tequila village of Mexico.
It is a low-GI sweetener with an elegant sweetness.
Agave syrup is a natural sweetener made from plants called Blue Agave, belonging to the Liliaceae family.
Almateira's agave syrup is made from the same variety of Blue Agave used as the raw material for high-quality tequila.
It has a natural, firm sweetness with a clean aftertaste.
In the United States and the EU, it is popular as a natural sweetener aligned with a Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) approach (natural, healthy, environmentally friendly).
Features:
- Low-GI natural sweetener with a GI value of 27
- Natural sweetness with a refreshing aftertaste
- Easily dissolves in cold drinks and is heat-resistant
- Suitable for use in beverages, desserts, and cooking as a sweetener
◆ Differences between "GOLD" and "RAWDARK"
GOLD and RAW DARK differ in heating time and temperature during manufacturing, resulting in slight differences in the ratio of sugars such as fructose and glucose compared to Blue Agave syrup.
The GI value of Agave Syrup GOLD is 27, characterized by a solid sweetness.
Agave Syrup RAW DARK is processed at a low temperature below 48°C. Its GI value is around 30, with a rich, deep sweetness similar to brown sugar. Its sweetness is milder than GOLD but can also be used in cooking.
◆ Usage Instructions
With a natural sweetness and a clean, refreshing aftertaste, it dissolves easily, making it ideal for syrup in cold drinks, refined in dishes and desserts requiring a delicate sweetness.
*Note: Agave syrup's main component is fructose. Please be cautious of excessive carbohydrate intake.

When I first tasted agave syrup in 2004, its rich flavor was different from honey or maple syrup.
It is delicious, gentle on the body, and an organic sweetener—like a dream come true!
As someone who loves to eat, I have been working hard every day to share this with many people, especially those who need it.
To expand the use of agave syrup, which was still unknown in Japan, I visited Mexico to deeply understand the farms, factories, and the thoughts of the workers involved.
Since then, I have visited Mexico every year to gather the latest information and current conditions.
I have met passionate, proud people who love their work, including a French owner of a chocolate factory with a passionate artisan spirit.
While product quality is important, I believe that ultimately, "passion" and "people" create inspiration.
I want the earth—air, water, sea, and land—to stay healthy. I believe all living creatures, including humans, are affected by the planet.
I believe that spreading organic foods is one way to energize the Earth, and I want to continue selling foods I find delicious.
I also aim to promote the idea that "purchasing organic products contributes to the Earth," encouraging people to incorporate such products into their lives.
Since food must be tasty to encourage repeat purchases, deliciousness is essential.
In this era of 100-year lifespans and increasing health awareness, I am committed to creating products that are truly authentic.
**Mission 1:** To ensure that the Earth where children live remains "beautiful and peaceful forever."
**Mission 2:** To connect life through food and achieve both health and beauty.
I will continue to work toward contributing to your health and beauty.
