I have a good customer who is about to spend a month touring Spain. She really wants to bring me something back. In our global economy I can get most things that I can think of, or customs won't let it come back into the US. So, what items do you all know of that I can get by taking advantage of this offer? Maybe a special liquor? Some off the beaten path wine made by monks? A super special chocolate? I'm up for anything.

After my trip I wished I'd brought back more good olive oil.

I can't find the same quality here at any price.

I just don't want to look back and think "I could have eaten that."

Unsupervised, rebellious, radical agrarian experimenter, minimalist penny-pincher, and adventurous cook. Crotchety, cantankerous, terse curmudgeon, non-conformist, and contrarian who questions everything!

The best thing about a vegetable garden is all the meat you can hunt and trap out of it!

Depending on how much she is willing to spend I would go with a high quality can of Berberechos (Galician cockles) and a small bottle of Salsa d'Espinaler to go with it.

We always bring back acorn liqueur.  If for no other reason than the funny squirrels on the label.  There are several brands.
