Championships
This edition, already launched, is carried out between days 25 28 April and. Interestingly, it takes place less than a year after the previous one. The coronavirus delayed the celebration of the previous one so that barely half a year has passed since it was held in October. However, despite the similarity with respect to that, the new Gourmets Hall 35 brings news. One is the Burguer Combat, the championship in search of best burger.
It also has other competitions typical of previous years, such as the Spanish championship for opening oysters and the best cachopo. We also have the Ham Cutter Contest and the GourmetQuesos. The latter chooses the best cheeses in Spain, so it will be for a later article. It should be noted that it is not necessary to wear a mask inside the enclosure, although places such as the cheese tunnel They have a restricted capacity. It is also not allowed to taste inside the cheese that they give you inside, so you must do it outside.
New participants
In this edition we find products that make their debut at the fair. Wineries comor San Roque de la Encina, dove o Felix Sanz surprise us with their varied repertoire in terms of wines. Within organic food Canned Pedro Luis SL. delights us with products such as beans with ecological vegetable. Within its catalog it also has organic stew broth, in addition to chicken and organically produced fish.
Because the sustainability It is one of the most relevant criteria of the companies in the sector. This is noticeable since it is a factor that they always highlight when making themselves known. An example of this is beer. Destra Pearl. It comes from Jerez de la Frontera and highlights its cooperative model of social economy in addition to raw materials from organic production. Inside this. And speaking of drinks, it is also interesting to highlight some very new concepts in Spain.
One of them is the canned wine, which we already talked about in a previous article. It is a very popular product in the United States and designed for young people. Well, in the case of Gourmets Hall 35 we find a brand like Toff. This company has been such a success that it already exports even to markets as difficult as the Venezuelan. However, he hopes that the fair will serve as a springboard to make contacts with Spanish retailers.
Innovation as the flagship of Salón Gourmets 35
Returning to the Cheese tunnel, we also count the Wine Tunnel and EVOO tunnel. It is a campaign of Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries to publicize the great gastronomic wealth that Spain is capable of boasting. And speaking of Spain, the distribution of stands it is the same again. That is, they are grouped by Autonomous Communities to make it easier for you to find according to which products.
