OUR HISTORY

Tradition and commitment to our gastronomic heritage

Cuevas’ long relationship with chestnuts dates back more than half a century, when the large group of emigrants residing in America wanted access to the most nostalgic fruits of our forests from a distance.

Cuevas stands out due to its symbiosis between nature and craftsmanship, firmly committed to keeping a culinary legacy so full of history alive. A genuine product with “soul”.
