With a limited production of 20,000 units, it is presented in a white bottle with a sand texture, thus recalling the origins of agriculture. And silk-screened with the constellation of the moon and stars, representing the cosmic forces and those of the earth itself.

Beyond the ecological:

Biodynamicity involves not only the total exclusion of chemically synthesized fertilizers or pesticides in agricultural exploitation, but also an absolute transformation of the environment in which it is produced.

Biodynamic agriculture is a firm step forward from the organic farming method that is based on the harmonization between the different forces that govern nature: atmospheric phenomena, seasons, position of the constellations in the cosmos, lunar cycles, seeking balance between the soil, the trees, the animals and the man. From the incorporation of sheep to the farm, the creation of own fertilizers through composting, the enrichment of the vegetal cover through the installation of honeycombs, biological control, the foliar use of silica (ground quartz) in instead of copper and the application of different biodynamic preparations, are some of the elements that are added to the specific elements of organic farming and that Castillo de Canena incorporates.
