WORLWIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED
Located on the Carrera San Jerónimo, between the Puerta del Sol and the Paseo del Prado, Casa Mira was founded in 1842 by the intrepid Luis Mira. Originally from the town of Jijona in Alicante, Luis would set out for Madrid around Christmas to sell his turrones in the Plaza Mayor. Unfortunately, he would never make it that far as his products would sell out along the way. 172 years later, this historic store has remained pretty much unchanged.
The Spanish Royal Warrant, granted by Queen Isabel II, hangs above old glass cases filled with the traditional handmade nougat (turrón) and candies this charming shop is famous for.
This rectangular shop is lined with shoulder-level wood and glass cases that follow the lines of the burgundy brocade-covered walls. On the back wall, a solemn portrait of Luis Mira keeps watch over the daily comings and goings. It’s a tidy place that resoundingly echoes the last century.
While these confections are traditionally for Christmas, most of the varieties are available here year-round. The turrones are sold by weight.
