The Nieve has nothing to be ashamed of and its production is 100% transparent. It is handmade at the Caminhar factory in Portugal by our friend Paulo and his team of experienced craftsmen. This European manufacturing which allows us to limit the carbon footprint and guarantee the traceability of our products.
