Can you send me some samples to try?

My Matinata products are not always the same colour. Is this a problem?
Not at all.
Natural raw ingredients can vary in colour and fragrance. We make all our products in small, fresh batches. This means that there can sometimes be slight differences in colour and scent, which is in harmony with their natural sources.
