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.

Why Stone Ground?
They'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.

Dastony's commitments to raw, vegan, and organic.
They use only the highest quality, organic nuts and seeds in the making of all of their Dastony's Gourmet Nuts and Seeds. They take it one step further by never adding any preservatives to their products. From farm to jar, Dastony is always chemical free.

It is critical that the fats found in nuts and seeds are never heated "cooked" above 118 degrees Fahrenheit. Doing so will transform highly sought after 'healthy fats' into avoid-at-all-costs 'bad fats'. Dastony's unique process never subjects the ingredients to temperatures that exceed this threshold. Animal products are never used in their Dastony products, and never will be. Their vegan approach isn't only for their company's moral beliefs but also because of their understanding of the dangers associated with eating animal products.
